To access BO enterprise needs static IP address

hi There
the funny question, i was told by my BO admin, if i want to access BO enterprise folder (repository), i need to have static IP address, is that true?
thanks

I assume that there is a firewall protecting your BOBJ server and the admin needs to allow access for fixed IP addresses.

Printer needs static IP address - I think I know what to do, but not sure

I got a new HP 8500A wireless network printer. I have used a US Robotics MAXg wireless router (Model 5461A) for years with zero issues. I have 2 Windows XP PRO computers, and 1 Windows 7 Home Premium. (Plus the Wii, a Kindle, Blu-Ray player, and couple cell phones at various times on the network.)
When I first installed it, the IP address was 192.168.2.9. Today, one of my XP computers couldn't find it, and the IP address had changed to 192.168.2.4. (I have no idea why the other two computers caught the change.) My understanding is that I need to give the printer a static IP address.
My Router status page says that the DHCP server uses a range from .2 to .31.
Therefore, this is what I think I need to do:
In my printer network settings, I need to change from "automatic" to "Manual" with the following values:
IP = 192.168.2.32
Subnet = 255.255.255.0 (from router LAN status page)
Default Gateway = 192.168.2.1 (from router LAN status page)
DNS server = 192.168.2.1 (from router LAN status page)
Alternate DNS server = ?? I have no idea for this one
Then I have to re-install the printer on all three computers with the new static IP, right?
Do I do anything to the router?

You have it right. For ease of input, use the printer's Embedded Web Server (EWS). Type the current IP into a browser from any of the PC's and you will see it. Navigate to the Networking tab, then choose IPv4 on the left (or similar, there are getting to be a lot of variations in the EWS structure).
Leave the second DNS server blank. You should not have to do anything in the router, except perhaps reboot it with its power cord to issue the new IP.
After that you should be able to delete the printer in the PC's control panel and then re-add them.

How to apply Static IP address without disabling data plan

Our Network team does not want to open all ports on a server mobile staff needs to access. We ordered static IP addresses and entered them on the firewall so they can specificall access. Once the IP address is added to the iPad - the data plan is disabled.

I have just tried giving my iPhone's WiFi a static IP address and it did not stop the cellular data from working.
I probably misunderstand your problem.
I presume by a static address you meant the WiFi, was this a company internal IP address or an external one?
There could be differences between the iPhone and the iPad in how it handles this situation, my iPad is WiFi only so I could not test this.
If you get no other suggestions on the forum I suggest a visit to Appe store if possible or a phone call to Apple. If you are not under Apple Care there may be a charge for the telephone support but may save a lot of hassle. The option is to ask your Data plan provider.
Sorry I can offer no other suggestions.

Workaround for not having a static IP address? Just need to VPN into server

I work from home, and so do my partners. I recently bought a mac mini server, so that we will have 1 central computer where all the projects are stored. Now with me being a mobileme user, I of course have access to it no matter where I go. But for my partners, I need to provide them with VPN access so they can get to/store files on the server.
In order to do that, of course, I'm going to need a static IP address. Problem is, mediacom (worst service imaginable for ISP) won't provide a static IP address unless I upgrade to a business account. No thanks, dont feel like spending $80+ for only needing the static IP.
So I guess my question is this: Is there a way to get around using a static IP address? Any 3rd party software solutions, online services, etc available to me? I consider myself a novice, as I'm being forced into the position of being the "expert" on this now.
Thanks in advance for your help!

You need to use a dynamic DNS service. Check out http://www.dyndns.com for their free service. Others exist. Use Google and search for dynamic DNS. This will keep your host name in line with your changing IP address.
Hope this helps

Need to configure automatically static IP ADDRESS

Hi,
I am using VMWare and its inbuilted with Linux and Oracle.
I want to use a static IP address for eg. 10.2.2.230 in ifcfg-eth0 under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts so that the static ip can be used in all other machines
But when i am starting the VmWare in another machine the IP which has been set to 10.2.2.230 is not getting set and everytime I had to reconfgure in the other machines
using the parametr IPADDR=10.2.2.230.
Is there any shellscript to set the IPADDR that everytime i need not to reconfigure the IP Address.
Any help will be needful for me

Got two questions for you :
1. What kind of network are you using within your VMWARE environment? Is it bridged, NAT, host only ?
2. In your guest operating system (the vmware image), could it be that eth0 is set to DHCP?
You can check it by executing 'system-config-network' as root. It will take you to the configuration screen of your network.
Can you also paste your /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 here?
Thanks,
EJ

My MacBook is not communicating with my desk top to enable printing from my MacBook. I need to find out how to make that happen. I have a static IP address on my desktop but don't know what to do on the Mac Book.

My MacBook is not connecting to the host computer for the printer. The host computer has a static IP address which is different from the IP address that the laptop is looking for. How do I change the laptop so that it looks for the host computer's correct IP? The laptop is connected to the router. I know this because I can get on the internet with the laptop.

The host computer is Dell and the operating system is Windows 7. The printer is an Epson, and it is wired to the host computer with a USB cable. It does have host printing turned on.
The three have been working harmoniously for a long time. The router had to be reset; and after that, the MacBook documents would no longer print.
We created a new static IP address on the Dell but the MacBook is not recognizing it. We have researched the internet trying to figure out how to make the MacBook locate and recognize the correct IP address from the Dell so they can communicate with each other. The laptop is not communicating with the host computer because is is looking for the wrong IP. The host IP is 192.168.1.245 and the laptop is looking for 192.168.15.237.
I hope everything is clear. The person who originally set it up is no longer available to help me. Thank you for any help you may give me.

Unable to access internet when static IP address is configured

Hi
I am facing the problem for not getting the internet in AD Server(DC) if configured with static IP address. If we set DHCP it will connect to internet. When I check the IPCONFIG on DHCP settings its showing the external address of the ISP router. Not the
firewall. Suspect there must be a foul play with DNS. Appreceiate your prompt response.
Thanks
Michael

Hi
First, Disable ipv6. then run the netsh command to reset IP stuff. Just a warning though,
I think this will only apply to this problem if you are using static IPs.
Here is the netsh comman:
netsh interface ip set address name="Local Area Connection" static xxx.xxx.xxx xxx.xxx.xxx xxx.xxx.xxx
ip address subnet mask gateway

Can I assign Airport Express to static IP Address?

Current setup - Airport Extreme attached to cable modem with 2 hard drives, Airport Express as print server in separate room with USB printer attached (just changed from Linksys with sometimes working NetGear print server). Clients accessing the network: 2 Windows XP, 1 Windows 7, iPads, iPhones, iPods, Apple TV, and sometimes a Mac Book.
The issue is that we don't keep the printing system on at all times (light switch with Express and printer plugged in); We dont't do much printing, and I print to pdf most of the time. As a result, the Express IP address changes every time it's turned on, requiring me to change the port settings on the printer properties before anyone can print. Is there a way to assign a static IP address to the Express so that I don't become tech support every time someone else in the house needs to print something?

Is there a way to assign a static IP address to the Express so that I don't become tech support every time someone else in the house needs to print something?
Yes. The first order of business is to find the AirPort ID for the AirPort Express. You do this by opening AirPort Utility and clicking once on the Express. In the area to the right, jot down the AirPort ID.
Still in AirPort Utility, now click on the AirPort Extreme and click Manual Setup
Click the Internet icon
Click the DHCP tab below the Advanced icon
Look for the DHCP Reservations area and click on the + (plus) button at the bottom
Enter a description, for example AirPort Express
Click the MAC Address button and click Continue
Enter the AirPort ID in the MAC Address box
Assign the IP address you want the Express to use, for example 10.0.1.20
Click Done, then click Apply and the AirPort Extreme will restart
It would be a good idea to power cycle the entire network as follows:
Power everything down...all devices, order is not important
Power up the modem first, then AirPort Extreme, then Express, then devices

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but since main is static, any fields it access must also be static.
The static keyword declares that something is accessable no matter the class state, thus you can call main() and run your program without having something make an instance of the object that your progam defines. For example:
class Foo {
      static public String strText = "Hello World";
//Later in some method, this is valid.
String MyString = Foo.strText;
//However, if strText was not static you need to
Foo fooExample = new Foo();
String myString = fooExample.strText;Static should not override private, so static private fields/members are not accessable. To be accessable you still need to be public.

Email Settings for email with no static IP Address

Hi,
I have been a Blackberry fan for years and have setup countless Blackberry's for friends. I recently changed jobs and therefore, had to change my email settings, to receive work emails on my Blackberry Torch. I emailed our hosting company and asked for the settings to setup my phone, I received this response: (have blanked out my details for security reasons)
To setup the email account on your BlackBerry device you will need the following information
Email address: ********@******.co.za
username: ********
Password: ********
Incoming mail server: The incoming mail server is tricky as your organisation doesn’t have a static IP address. For now try IP Address: **.***.***.***
I have tried these settings as well as the settings in my Outlook account settings folder (the incoming server on my Outlook is a local IP Address, to the server in our office)
None of which have worked. I have contacted both our hosting company and Vodacom (my BB service provider) neither are able to assist me? Even my husband (who is an IT specialist has tried, with no luck) I then tried to use the BIS html option to find my settings, but for some reason Vodacom does not allow this, I received this error message when trying to logon/register: Your account is not accessible via HTML browser. Please use your device to access BlackBerry Internet Service.
Could someone please help? Even if it's just a step by step guide on how to setup this type of email account? Any assistance would be appreciated!

Yup, the routine settings didn't work, i also tried adding the additional settings manually, and this did not work either.

Do I Have To Have A Static IP Address?

I am in the very early planning stages of creating a Server based network for my business. I have several issues which can be solved using a server. As a photographer I keep beating my HD space and will wind up with a RAID system like a Drobo FS. Another issue is uploading images from a shoot to the server which will require configuring a VPN - some have suggested a server domain name then access storage or other areas from the domain. I've basically been told I will need a static IP address to make this whole system work. I talked with my cable ISP and was told I would have to have a Business Account inorder to have a static IP address. Not only is a business account at least 2x the cost of a residential account but the service (speed) is substantially slower than what I have now. My obvious question is whether I have to have a static IP address to make all this work? I have done considerable reading on the whole server issue and while I've found lots of other answers, I cannot find an absolute answer to this question so I'm going to rely on what I've found to be experts. Many thanks for the guidance.

I have found that with most residential broadband providers (at least with cable) your public IP address stays the same unless you change the hardware that is connected directly to the cable modem. So, if you have the same router connected to the cable modem for a year your public IP address has probably been the same for the last year.
Business class solutions suck in that they cost more and aren't usually as fast (unless of course you want to pay even more money) as residential services but they do get a static IP address and they get all ports unblocked. Since your IP shouldn't change as a residential customer unless you switch hardware the only real gain is the port unblocking.
For me, I wanted to be able to host a mail server and web server on my server and in my house. That is the reason I switched to a business class account. I was able to run AFP, iCal, Address Book, and VPN services over the internet on my residential account (because those ports weren't blocked) but because I wanted to run a mail server and web server - and not violate my provider's TOS by running a server on a residential connection - I upgraded to business class.

Port Forwarding and Static IP addresses

Netcomm NB1300 router and Airport Express.
I want to use and old G3 mac running 10.3.9 as a server for HTTP and FTP. The Mac is currently connected via Airport but I can connect it via Ethernet if necessary.
I understand that I will have to activate Port Forwarding on my Router with Ports 21 and 80 to allow external Internet access to the G3. I will also have to configure DHCP Manually for a Static IP address and probably link up with a Free DNS service to maintain reliable access to the G3.
I have other computers on the network, two Macs (Ethernet / 10.3.9 & Airport 10.4.11) and two PC's (one with Vista, one with XP / both on Airport). Only one of the extra Macs is connected via ethernet, the rest are connected via Airport.
Will I have to assign Static IP addresses to all the computers or just the one I want to use as a server?
And also, can anyone tell me about Port Forwarding via Port 22 to give more security from external observation/attacks? I know nothing about this security measure.
Thanks in advance.
Christo.

I am now assuming I will be able to access the 'server' from an external location. Very optimistic! But I can't test that for a couple of days.
Ah, but you've given up too soon! You can access your web server from outside your network real easy: you just need to find an external client you can point back to your site. I like to use the W4C validator to do that. It has the happy side effect of also telling you if your web page markup is valid. So you'd point your browser to the validator page:
http://validator.w3.org/
I like to choose "More Options" and tell it to show the page source. That way I can also verify that it's seeing the page I want it to see.
If I disconnect the iBook from Ethernet, can it still be accessible from an external location if it is connected to the Router via Airport, or do I have do so something like Port Forwarding with my Airport Express as well? Note the iBook can still connect to the Internet via Airport.
It would depend on how your Airport is set up. I think there are a couple of ways to set them up. One is to make the Airport a DHCP server, which would make the wireless network essentially a separate network. In that case, you'd have to forward throught the Airport, too.
My wireless network, though, is set up to bridge, so it's all one network. In that case, all I'd have to do to forward wirelessly to a client would be to set up the forward on the main router.
Being that persons other than myself will be accessing the iBook via FTP, do I give them the user account password of the Mac, or can I set a password in the Router or something else?
Also, when accessing the iBook on my local network using Cyberduck, I can see the entire directory of the iBook's user account. Is there a way to limit access to just one folder, such as the Public folder, or a self-designated folder?
Unfortunately, I don't know anything about setting up FTP. I would suggest that you look into maybe making an account on the iBook specifically for the FTP user and only give out that username and password. You might want to poke around in the Networking and the Web and Unix discussions in the Mac OS X Technologies area. I've seen a number of posts there about setting up FTP, and you might be able to find your answers there.

Static ip address 97.82.184.234

Hey, i need help with a static ip address setup on a linksys E1200 wireless router. i want to use the ip address 97.82.184.234. i want to use this address because it was the default address of my minecraft server, but, however, has changed after the router uit working and had to be reset. so now, all of my friends dont know how to connect to my server, and i have no way of contacting them. i cannot use this address for some reason. there are either errors popping up, or i cant access he internet. if you guys could tell me the correct DNS Server, subnet mask, and gateway to use with this ip address, that would be great.
thanks, Josh

Do you have a static IP subscription coming from your ISP? If you do, there is a need to ask your ISP for the correct DNS Server, subnet mask, and gateway that you need to set on the router. But if you just wanted to let your friends’ access your Minecraft server that is connected behind the router, you just need to do port forwarding on the router.
But you need to make sure that the router is properly configured to work with your modem before you can do the port forwarding.

Convert Autonomous to lightweight AP - Static IP Address

Hi,
I've converted a couple of Autonomous APs to lightweight recently and once they reboot they have a static IP configured on them, which then requires console access to remove the static IP.
Below are the commands I run to convert the AP:
AP#archive tar /xtract ftp://username:password@FTP Server IP/ap1g2-rcvk9w8-tar.152-2.JB3.tar flash:/
AP(config)#boot system flash:/filename
AP#copy run start
Is there something I'm missing in my process which will prevent the AP from having a static IP address when it reboots and loads the lightweight image?
Thanks,

AP#copy run start
Instead of saving the config, you need to delete the config using the command "wr default".

Static IP Address not working on windows server

first of all...I am not an IT person so most of this is greek to me...
I got a static IP address from my ISP and loaded it into the TCP/IPv4 for my ethernet ont he server. As soon as I do that I lose internet access. I can ping the static IP address but not the gateway IP.
I have called my ISP and they said all the setting were correct on the modem.
Not sure what to do.

If you have the public on the WAN of the router, you do not need it on the server. The server wants to be a static on the same range as the LAN of the router. If you have the router LAN set as 192.168.1.1 (which is the default of most out there)
you want the IP of the server to be something like 192.168.1.10, with the same subnet mask of the LAN of the router (Usually 255.255.255.0) and the Default Gateway of the server to be the LAN IP of the router (in this example: 192.168.1.1). For DNS,
you probably want to set the LAN IP of the router, as the router should send any requests to the public DNS set by the ISP.
This should get the server back online.
