Powering on the FaxPress Enterprise

Once you’ve connected the FaxPress Enterprise to your network and plugged the power cable into the power source, power on the Enterprise by using the power switch located on the front of the unit.

Once powered on, the FaxPress Enterprise’s serial number will be displayed on the FaxPress Enterprise’s front panel LCD window. The FaxPress Enterprise’s serial number is the factory default FaxPress Enterprise name. To change the FaxPress Enterprise serial number to a name, see Changing the FaxPress Enterprise Serial Number to a Name.

Powering on in a DHCP Environment

By default, the FaxPress Enterprise is DHCP-enabled. Powered on in a DHCP environment, the FaxPress Enterprise 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 FaxPress Enterprise’s IP address will be displayed on the FaxPress Enterprise’s front panel LCD window.

To change the FaxPress Enterprise’s server-assigned IP address, see Changing the Enterprise Server’s IP Address.

Powering on in a Static IP Environment

If the FaxPress Enterprise 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 FaxPress Enterprise’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 FaxPress Enterprise’s self-assigned static IP address, see Changing the Enterprise Server’s IP Address.
