- Edimax Fast Ethernet MFP Server User's Manual

13.2.1 Enable MFP Server’s TCP/IP Support

The default configuration of the MFP Server is with TCP/IP support enabled.

You can configure the MFP Server to enable TCP/IP support using the

configuration program.

13.2.2 Setup MFP Server’s IP Address

The MFP Server must have a unique IP address in order to be recognized by

the network.

You can set up the IP address on the various Unix/Linux systems using any

one of the following methods:

1. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

2. BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol)

The MFP Server will use these two methods to obtain IP address

automatically if its IP address is configured as Auto (0.0.0.0).

13.2.2.1 DHCP

There are many Unix/Linux systems that support DHCP protocol, and the

procedures to configure the DHCP server database are different. Please refer

to the manual of Unix/Linux for the way to use different DHCP Server. It is

highly recommended that the DHCP server should be located on the same

network as the MFP Server.
