CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 1-1 1 11 CHAPTER ONE 11 TCP/IP Conf iguration 11 Assigning TCP/IP Inf ormation Ov erview The TCP/IP protocol req uires that each device on the network have it's o wn unique IP address. Use the following information to l earn about IP address configuration.
CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 1-2 Using the MFC fr ont panel to allocate an IP addr e ss. Refer to chapter 2 for detai ls on how to configure IP address inform ation using the MFC control pan el. By using the front p anel of the MFC, you can pro gram the IP address details at the same time that other MFC parameters are configured.
CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 1-3 Using BRAdmin and the IPX/SPX Protocol to set the IP addr ess If your PC has Novell N etware Client soft ware and is using the IPX/SP X protocol, do the f ollowing: 1. Select IPX/SPX filter in the left frame of the main window.
CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 1-4 Changing the IP Address using the BRAdmin application Start the BRAdmin application (from Windows ® 95/98/Me/NT ® 4.0 /2000). The BRAdmin application can use t he IPX/SPX or TCP/IP protoc ols to communicate with t he Brother Print / Fax server.
CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 1-5 Using DHCP to Conf igur e the IP address Dynamic Host Confi guration Protocol ( D HCP) is one of sev eral automated mechanisms for IP ad dress allocation.
CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 1-6 Using ARP to Conf igure the Print / F ax serv er IP Addr ess If you are unable to use t he BRAdmin appli cation, MFC front panel a nd your network does not use a DHCP server, you c an also use the ARP comman d. ARP is the simplest method of configuring the Print / Fa x server IP address.
CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 1-7 Using RARP to Conf igur e the IP Addr ess Brother Print / Fax ser ver IP address can be configured usi ng the Reverse ARP (rarp) facility on your host computer.
CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 1-8 Using BOO TP to Conf igur e the IP Addr ess BOOTP is an alternative to rarp that has the a dvantage of allowing configurat ion of the subnet mask and g ateway.
CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 1-9 Changing the IP Address settings with the TELNET Console You can also use the TE LNET command to change the IP address. Using TELN ET is effective way, when you change the IP address. But a valid IP address must already be program med into the Print / Fax ser ver.
