Wireless Server Configuration Screen Fields

Listed below is a description of each of the fields displayed on the

Wireless

Server Configuration

screen and reasonable values for that field. Once these are

all set, click

OK

to close the Configuration Screen and write the changes to the

Server. If you decide NOT to CHANGE the values, select

CANCEL

to close the

Configuration Screen and revert to the prior values.

Server Name
This is the name of the wireless print server. The default is XCD_xxxxxx (where
xxxxxx are the last six digits of the MAC/Ethernet address). You can choose any
name for this setting. Many companies have suggested naming practices; check
with your System Administrator or Network Manager for policies and practices.

Serial Number
This is the fixed number which identifies the EtherWind Server. It is set during
manufacture and does not change after that.

Password
This is the EtherWind Wireless Print Server configuration password. For security,
the password is never shown. (The field displays asterisks (*) if you type characters
into it.) You must know the password before WP-Admin will show you the
Configuration Screen. Users should only put text into this field if they want to
change the password. Ask your System Administrator or Network Manager for the
correct password; be sure the Administrator/Manager is informed and concurs
BEFORE the password is changed.

Firmware Revision
This is a static string displaying the correct version of the software embedded in
the Server. It can not be modified.

IP Address
The IP Address is a set of four bytes, separated by periods. Each byte can have any
value between zero (0) and 255 includive. Most company networks have ranges
for their IP Addresses. Many have automatic IP set-up, so the IP address may not
require configuration. Consult with your network administrator if you are not sure
what to put in this field.

WorkGroup/Domain
This is the Microsoft Network WorkGroup or Domain in which you want the
print server. If you are using NetBIOS or NetBEUI to print, this value should
match the PC from which you are printing.
