    Connected to a computer with an access point on the network (Infrastructure mode) This type of network has a central access point at the heart of the network. The access point can also act as a bridge or a gateway to a wired network. When the Brother wireless machine (your machine) is part of this network, it receives all print jobs via an access point.

  • Page 17: Protocols

    To use the DHCP/BOOTP/RARP protocols, please contact your network administrator. APIPA If you do not assign an IP address manually (using the control panel of the machine or the BRAdmin applications) or automatically (using a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server), the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol will automatically assign an IP address from the range 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255.
  • Page 18 Note For the IPPS protocol, see Security protocols on page 146. mDNS mDNS allows the Brother print server to automatically configure itself to work in a Mac OS X Simple Network Configured system. (Mac OS X 10.3.9 or greater). Telnet The Brother print server supports Telnet server for command line configuration.

    Most wireless networks use some kind of security settings. These security settings define the authentication (how the device identifies itself to the network) and encryption (how the data is encrypted as it is sent on the network). If you do not correctly specify these options when you are configuring your Brother wireless device, it will not be able to connect to the wireless network.

    If you do not want your print server configured via DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you must set the Boot Method to static so that the print server has a static IP address. This will prevent the print server from trying to obtain an IP address from any of these systems.

  • Page 196: Using Bootp To Configure The Ip Address

    Depending on the system, this entry might be called “bootps” instead of “bootp”. Note In order to enable BOOTP, simply use an editor to delete the “#” (if there is no “#”, then BOOTP is already enabled). Then edit the BOOTP configuration file (usually /etc/bootptab) and enter the name, network type (1 for Ethernet), MAC Address (Ethernet Address) and the IP address, subnet mask and gateway of the print server.

  • Page 197: Using Rarp To Configure The Ip Address

    The Brother print server’s IP address can be configured using the Reverse ARP (RARP) facility on your host computer. This is done by editing the /etc/ethers file (if this file does not exist, you can create it) with an entry similar to the following:...
