Problems solved by technology

[0003] Even if the TCP / IP setting information including such an IP address is set for each machine one by one, it is also a burden for the network administrator. What's more, when changing the setting for the entire network, it is necessary to reset all the machines. setting, the burden on the network administrator is heavier

Embodiment Construction

[0024] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] [Embodiment 1]

[0026] "The Composition of LAN"

[0027] First, the configuration of a LAN (Local Area Network) of this embodiment will be described. There are 1 or more network devices connected to the LAN of this embodiment, and these devices are all managed by the network setting software.

[0028] FIG. 1 is an exemplary diagram showing the network configuration of the present embodiment. A printer 102 is connected to a local area network (LAN) 100 via a network board 101 . Devices that can be connected to a local area network in this way are called network devices. In addition, the network board 101 may be external or built-in relative to the network equipment.

[0029] The network board 101 is connected to the LAN 100 through an interface such as 10Base-T having an RJ-45 connector. Personal computers (PCs) 103 and 104 are also connecte...

Abstract

Network device and setting apparatus therefor. This disclosure relates to reducing a load in setting a network device. Initial information necessary for connecting a printer (102) as a network device to a network is automatically assigned by a configurator server (103). Setting information which is necessary for causing a PC (104) to receive a service provided by the printer is collected from the printer (102) and managed by the configurator server (103).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an automatic setting technology of equipment connected to a network and a management technology of setting information. Background technique [0002] Generally, machines connected to the network must be properly configured before starting. Necessary setting items are unique to each network protocol. For example, in a TCP / IP network, each device must be assigned a unique name called an IP address. [0003] Even if the TCP / IP setting information including such an IP address is set for each machine one by one, it is also a burden for the network administrator. What's more, when changing the setting for the entire network, it is necessary to reset all the machines. setting, the burden on the network administrator is even heavier. [0004] RARP (Reverse Address Resolution Protocol), BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol, RFC951), and DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, RFC1541, 2131) are known as attempts to solve the problems...
