Pre-installation Information
Preinstallation
The product has to be setup properly on your network to perform E-mail and
filing functions. The following network parameters have to be set.
Important!
Make a copy of the following table and ask your Network Administrator
to complete the information.
1. DHCP Enable:
2. IP Address: . . .
3. Subnet Mask: . . .
4. Gateway IP: . . .
5. DNS Server: . . .
6. Mail Server: . . .
7. Port # of Mail

Explanation of contents:
1. *DHCP Enable: Choose Yes to obtain IP/subnet/gateway/DNS
server/WINS server addresses automatically
from DHCP server.
2. *IP Address: The Internet Protocol (IP) address assigned to
your machine by your network administrator or
by DHCP server.

network administrator.
Note:
1. DHCP server: With DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), a host can
automatically be given a unique IP address each time it connects to a
network--making IP address management an easier task for network
administrators. If the DHCP server is available from your network, you do
not need to enter TCP/IP, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS information.
Instead, this information will be automatically given for the product.
2. IP Address: An IP (Internet Protocol) address uniquely identifies a host
connection to an IP network. System administrator or network designer
assigns the IP address. The IP address consists of two parts, one identifying
the network and the one identifying your node. The IP address is usually
written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be zero to
255. For example, 10.1.30.186 could be an IP address.
3. DNS: Stands for Domain Name System. The DNS server identifies hosts via
names instead of IP addresses. If the DNS server is available on your
network, you can enter the domain name instead of digits for the IP
address.
