IPAddress Reservation (Best Practice)

[Aaron S. Thompson]

With DDNS you could print by IP with a standardized host name on the  
printers. This is how we define our host names.

Naming Conventions: (what the host name should be)

Computers

username-computer    =    athompson-G5.company.net

Printers
department-building-room-printer  =  HR-123-WS-5100.company.net

This might lower the amount of reservations your managing.

keep us posted o the interface!

Regards



Aaron
