How does Web Jetadmin maintain devices’ IP addresses that have changed?
HP Web Jetadmin has the ability to adjust IP addresses stored for each device. In many cases, IP addresses on devices will remain static and changes within the HP Web Jetadmin all devices list won’t be needed. In a few cases, device addresses may change due to device moves or when device addresses are assigned with DHCP. In these cases, HP Web Jetadmin should be able to cope with the changes and quickly change its internal record of a device’s IP address. HP Web Jetadmin will automatically change a devices IP address anytime it detects a change in that address. For instance, a device might have been configured with the IP address 192.186.40.203 yesterday but today it has the IP address 192.168.42.198. HP Web Jetadmin will only realize changes when some communication has taken place with the new device address. IP Range discoveries may be performed from time to time if IP addresses are prone to changing.
