DCP-J525W/J725DW/J925DW. Overview In today’s world there are many security threats to your network and the data that travels over it. Your Brother machine employs some of the latest network security and encryption protocols available today. These network features can be integrated into your overall network security plan to help protect your data and prevent unauthorized access to the machine.
Security features Sending an E-mail securely Configuration using Web Based Management (web browser) You can configure secured E-mail sending with user authentication on the Web Based Management screen. Start your web browser. Type “http://printer’s IP address/” into your browser (where “printer’s IP address” is the printer’s IP address).
Security features Sending an E-mail with user authentication This machine supports POP before SMTP and SMTP-AUTH methods to send an E-mail via an E-mail server that requires a user authentication. These methods prevent an unauthorized user from accessing the E-mail server.
We strongly recommend to use the latest version of the BRAdmin Professional 3 utility that is available as a download from http://solutions.brother.com/. If you use an older version of BRAdmin to manage your Brother machines the user authentication will not be secure.
