XEROX FREEFLOW PRINT SERVER 
 
GETTING READY FOR THE PRINT SERVER INSTALLATION 
your customer’s company. The customer network administrator 
assigns IP address numbers within this set to each host and 
workstation on the network. 
Subnets: 
A “YES” answer to this query indicates that your 
customer’s network is divided into segments or “subnets.” In this 
instance the following data element, subnet mask, must also be 
provided. 
Subnet Mask: 
The subnet mask is a decimal or hexadecimal 
group of four fields, each separated by a decimal point that 
indicates how much of the IP Address is used with the Network 
number to create subnets. The following is an example of a 
subnet mask in its decimal and hexadecimal form. 
255.255.0.0 = 0xff.0xff.0x0.0x0 
The subnet mask is derived by the network administrator 
according to how many subnets are needed. The subnet mask 
is the same for all hosts that exist on a given network. Your 
customer’s network administrator can provide this information. 
Ipv6:
 Internet protocol version 6. FreeFlow Print Server is not 
using this version of the Internet protocol at this time. Do not 
select this option. 
Default Router lP address: 
The default router IP address is a 
unique 4 byte, 32 bit numeric value, for example, 13.252.12.198 
that identifies the machine that is acting as the main router. The 
router maintains tables of addresses of many networks in order 
to forward data packets between these networks. During install, 
the service representative creates a default router file on the 
print server, if one does not already exist, and this number is 
added to a line in the new file. Your customer’s network 
administrator should provide this number. 
NOTE: If another machine is not identified as the default router, 
the print server will automatically take over the main router 
function. This may noticeably slow down processing on the 
network. 
Kerberos Security:
 Kerberos security is a network 
authentication protocol that is provided with the Solaris 
environment. FreeFlow Print Server does not currently support 
this protocol. 
Name Service: 
DNS, NIS, NIS+, and LDAP are network 
information services that hold user information. None indicates 
that the user information is held locally. Additional information 
for each of these services should be entered in the appropriate 
table in W-6. The network services are enabled and configured 
using the FreeFlow Print Server Network Configuration screens. 
NOTE: In order to load and enable Remote Services, DNS must 
be the Name Service type. 
Geographic Region: 
Enter your customer’s geographical 
country or region. The selections available are Africa, Western
