Sharp MX-M1204 to Dell switch

Re: Sharp MX-M1204 to Dell switch

Is there some kind of access control on the switch where only registered MAC addresses can connect? If you put the copier on DHCP for an address, does it get anything other than a 169.x.x.x address?

Hi Rthonpm
The copier does not see a connection at all, I did not try giving the copiers MAC address an IP address, I will try that.

You can't assign a MAC address.. the MAC address is built in to every unit and cannot be changed.

I would check the switch for IP or MAC filtering. The phone could be an approved device and would allow the copier to connect through it.
The copier would not be on the approved list and its connection would be refused.

If MFP's mac address is not reserved on their switch most likely integreted maind board(wirh NIC) is culprit.

Hi what i ment is that i will tell IT to set the copiers Mac address to an ip address on the switch then possably the switch would connect to that device I have told them to try that buy they have not got back to me yet but as they are in a new building they are still setting up many users as well.

Set the machines IP as static, get MAC and IP then tell their IT guys to set a DHCP reservation for the machines address.
This reads like a restricted network and the only way this will be resolved is with their IT department.
