Enabling TCP/IP

Check that TCP/IP is enabled.

Select [Network] - [TCP/IP Setting] - [TCP/IP Setting1] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and configure the following settings.

Setting

Description

[TCP/IP]

When enabling TCP/IP, set this option to ON (default: ON).

[Network Speed]

Select the network speed according to your environment (default: [Auto (10M/100M/1Gbps)]).

Specifying IPv4 address

When connecting this machine to the IPv4 environment, specify the IPv4 address. The IP address is compatible with IPv4 and IPv6, which can be used simultaneously.

Select [Network] - [TCP/IP Setting] - [TCP/IP Setting1] - [IPv4] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and configure the following settings.

Setting

Description

[IP Address Setting Method]

Select the method to specify the IP address to this machine according to your environment (default: [Auto Setting]).

To manually specify the IP address, select [Manual Setting]. To automatically specify the IP address using DHCP, select [Auto Setting], and specify the automatic setting method.

[IP Address]

Enter the fixed IP address assigned to the machine when manually specifying the IP address.

[Subnet Mask]

Enter the subnet mask when manually specifying it.

[Default Gateway]

Enter the default gateway when manually specifying it.

Specifying IPv6 address

When connecting this machine to the IPv6 environment, specify the IPv6 address. The IP address is compatible with IPv4 and IPv6, which can be used simultaneously.

Select [Network] - [TCP/IP Setting] - [TCP/IP Setting1] - [IPv6] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and configure the following settings.

Setting

Description

[IPv6]

When using IPv6, set this option to ON (default: ON).

[Auto IPv6 Setting]

When automatically specifying the IPv6 global address, set this option to ON (default: ON).

The IPv6 global address is automatically set based on the prefix length notified from the router and the MAC address of this machine.

[DHCPv6 Setting]

When automatically specifying the IPv6 global address using DHCPv6, set this option to ON (default: ON).

[Link-Local Address]

Displays the link-local address. The link-local address is automatically specified from the MAC address of this machine.

[Global Address]

Enter the IPv6 global address when manually specifying it.

[Prefix Length]

Enter the prefix length of the IPv6 global address between 1 and 128 when manually specifying it.

[Gateway Address]

Enter the gateway address when manually specifying it.

Registering the DNS server

When DNS is installed in your environment, register the DNS server.

Select [Network] - [TCP/IP Setting] - [TCP/IP Setting1] - [DNS Server Setting(IPv4)] or [DNS Server Setting(IPv6)] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and configure the following settings.

Setting

Description

[DNS Server Auto Obtain]

When automatically specifying the DNS server address using DHCP, set this option to ON (default: ON).

[Primary DNS Server]

Enter the primary DNS server address when manually specifying it.

[Secondary DNS Server1] or [Secondary DNS Server2]

Enter the secondary DNS server address when manually specifying it.

Registering the host name

When using the host name to connect to this machine, register the host name of this machine.

Select [Network] - [TCP/IP Setting] - [TCP/IP Setting1] - [DNS Host] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and configure the following settings.

Setting

Description

[DNS Host Name]

Enter the host name of this machine (using up to 63 characters, including only - for symbol marks).

If your DNS server does not support the Dynamic DNS function, register the host name of this machine on the DNS server.

[Dynamic DNS Setting]

When using the Dynamic DNS function, set this option to ON (default: OFF).

If your DNS server supports the Dynamic DNS function, the set host name can be automatically registered to the DNS server or changes can be automatically updated.

[LLMNR Setting]

When using LLMNR, set this option to ON (default: ON).

Using LLMNR enables you to resolve the name even in an environment that does not have a DNS server. This option is only compatible with Windows computers. It is useful to resolve the name in the IPv6 environment.

Registering the domain name

Register the name of a domain this machine joins.

Select [Network] - [TCP/IP Setting] - [TCP/IP Setting1] - [DNS Domain Name Setting] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and configure the following settings.

Setting

Description

[DNS Domain Auto Obtain]

When automatically specifying the domain name using DHCP, set this option to ON (default: ON).

[DNS Search Domain Name Auto Retrieval]

When automatically specifying the search domain name using DHCP, set this option to ON (default: ON).

[DNS Default Domain Name]

When manually specifying the domain name, enter the default domain name of this machine (using up to 253 bytes, including the host name, - and . for symbol marks).

[DNS Search Domain Name1] to [DNS Search Domain Name3]

When manually specifying, enter the search domain name (using up to 63 characters, including only - and . for symbol marks).
