LDD 4.5.x and 4.6.1: How to Change the IP Address on a Configuration 1 System

Overview
The article describes how to change the IP address of a Configuration 1 System.
Why is this important?
If an incorrect IP address or fully qualified domain name is used when installing a Configuration 1 System, or the IP address of the computer on which the components of a Configuration 1 System are installed changes for any reason, then the IP address of the components can be changed without reinstallation.
Procedure
  1. From the
    command line
     on the computer where all components are installed, navigate to the
    Lexmark\Solutions
    \InstallHelper
    folder in the location where the components are installed. The default installation directory is
    C:\Program Files\Lexmark\Solutions\InstallHelper
    .
  2. Type
    update-addr.bat
    -hostname
    , where
    hostname
     is the
    fully qualified domain name (FQDN)
    of the local computer, or type
    update-addr.bat -ip
    , where
    ip
     is the
    IP address
     of the local computer, and then press
    Enter
    .
  3. To change the desktop shortcut's
    IP/Hostname
     address, perform the following steps in the order listed:
  • On the desktop of the computer where the components are installed,
    right-click
    the
    Lexmark Management Console (LMC)
     icon, and then click
    Properties
    .
  • Click
    Find Target
    .
  • In the folder that appears,
    right-click
     the shortcut
    lmc
    , and then click
    Properties
    .
  • Change
     the
    IP address
     or
    host name
     part of the URL to the new IP address or host name of the local computer.
  • The complete URL should be
    http://hostname:9780/lmc/
    , where hostname is the host name or IP address of the computer in which the components are installed.
