Powering on the FaxPress Premier
Server
Once you’ve connected the FaxPress Premier to your network and
plugged the power cable into the power source, power on the Premier by
using the power switch located on the front of the unit. The power switch
on the back of the unit provides power to the motherboard only, but must
also be on in the on position for the FaxPress Premier to boot up.
Once powered on, the FaxPress Premier’s serial number will be
displayed on the FaxPress Premier’s front panel LCD window. The
FaxPress Premier’s serial number is the factory default FaxPress Premier
name. To change the FaxPress Premier serial number to a name, see
Changing the Premier Serial Number to a Name on page 25 of this
guide
.
Powering on in a DHCP Environment
By default, the FaxPress Premier is DHCP-enabled. Powered on in a
DHCP environment, the Premier will automatically be assigned an IP
address from your network’s DHCP server, but will need to be manually
joined to the network domain. The Premier’s IP address will be displayed
on the FaxPress Premier’s front panel LCD window.
To change the Premier’s server-assigned IP address, see
Changing the
Premier Server’s IP Address on page 22 of this guide
.
Powering on in a Static IP Environment
If the FaxPress Premier server is operating in a non-DHCP (static IP)
environment, it will automatically assign itself a randomly generated
static IP address. You’ll probably need to change the Premier’s self-
assigned IP address, displayed on the front panel LCD window, to a static
IP address in the range on your network.
To change the Premier’s self-assigned static IP address, see
