Overview
To connect your machine to your wireless network, we recommend you to follow the steps in the Quick Setup
Guide using WPS or AOSS™ from the control panel menu. By using this method, you can easily connect your machine to your wireless network.
Please read this chapter for additional methods on how to configure the wireless network settings. For
Note
• To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document printing, place the Brother machine as close to the WLAN access point/router as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the two devices as well as interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your documents.
Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and applications. If you are printing large files, such as multi-page documents with mixed text and large graphics, you may want to consider choosing wired Ethernet for a faster data transfer, or USB for the fastest throughput speed.
• Although the Brother machine can be used in both a wired and wireless network, only one connection method can be used at a time.
• Before configuring wireless settings, you will need to know your Network name: (SSID, ESSID) and
Network Key. If you are using an enterprise wireless network you also need to know the User ID and
Password.

TCP/IP
If you connect the machine with a network cable to your network, use the Wired LAN menu selections. If you connect the machine to a wireless Ethernet network, use the WLAN menu selections.
5
Boot Method
This selection controls how the machine obtains an IP address.
Auto mode
In this mode, the machine will scan the network for a DHCP server, if it can find one, and if the DHCP server is configured to allocate an IP address to the machine, then the IP address supplied by the DHCP server will be used. If no DHCP server is available, then the machine will scan for a BOOTP server. If a BOOTP server is available, and it is configured correctly, the machine will take its IP address from the BOOTP server. If a
BOOTP server is not available, the machine will scan for a RARP server. If a RARP server also does not answer, the IP Address is set using the APIPA protocol. After the machine is initially powered ON, it may take a few minutes for the machine to scan the network for a server.
5
Static mode
In this mode the machine’s IP address must be manually assigned. Once entered the IP address is locked to the assigned address.
5
Note
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. To change the Boot Method, use the machine’s control panel, BRAdmin Light utility or Web Based Management.
5
31
Control panel setup
IP Address
This field displays the current IP address of the machine. If you have chosen a Boot Method of Static, enter the IP address that you wish to assign to the machine (check with your network administrator for the IP address to use). If you have chosen a method other than Static, the machine will attempt to determine its
IP address using the DHCP or BOOTP protocols. The default IP address of your machine will probably be incompatible with the IP address numbering scheme of your network. We recommend that you contact your network administrator for an IP address for the network the unit will be connected on.
5
Subnet Mask
This field displays the current subnet mask used by the machine. If you are not using DHCP or BOOTP to obtain the subnet mask, enter the desired subnet mask. Check with your network administrator for the subnet mask to use.
5
Gateway
This field displays the current gateway or router address used by the machine. If you are not using DHCP or
BOOTP to obtain the gateway or router address, enter the address you wish to assign. If you do not have a gateway or router, leave this field blank. Check with your network administrator if you are unsure.
5
IP Boot Tries
This field displays how many times the machine attempts to scan the network to obtain the IP address through
the Boot Method you have set. (See Boot Method on page 31).
5
APIPA
The setting of On will cause the print server to automatically allocate a Link-Local IP address in the range
(169.254.1.0 - 169.254.254.255) when the print server cannot obtain an IP address through the Boot Method
you have set. (See Boot Method on page 31.) Choosing Off means the IP address does not change, when
the print server cannot obtain an IP address through the Boot Method you have set.
5

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. This chapter explains how to configure them.
You can configure the following security features:
Managing your network machine securely using SSL/TLS (See Managing your network machine securely
Managing your network machine securely using SNMPv3 protocol (See Secure Management using
Web Based Management (web browser) on page 52 or Secure Management using BRAdmin
Sending and Receiving an E-mail securely (See Sending or Receiving an E-mail securely on page 55.)
Using IEEE 802.1x authentication (See Using IEEE 802.1x authentication on page 57.)
Secure Management using BRAdmin Professional 3 (Windows ®
) (See Secure Management using
BRAdmin Professional 3 (Windows ® ) on page 59.)
Certificate for secure management (See Using Certificates for device security on page 60.)
Managing multiple certificates (See Managing multiple certificates on page 69.)

Security features
Managing your network machine securely using SSL/TLS
To manage your network machine securely, you need to use the management utilities with security protocols.
7
Secure Management using Web Based Management (web browser)
We recommend to use HTTPS and SNMPv3 protocol for secure management. To use the HTTPS protocol, the following machine settings are required.
A self-signed certificate or a certificate issued by a CA, and a private key must be installed in the machine.
The HTTPS protocol must be enabled. To enable the HTTPS protocol, choose an installed certificate from the pull-down list in the HTTP Server Settings page of Web Based Management on the
Configure Protocol page, and then enable SSL communication is used (port 443). (For information on
how to access the Configure Protocol page, see How to configure the machine settings using
Web Based Management (web browser) on page 40.)
a Start your web browser.
b Type “https://Common Name/” into your browser. (Where “Common Name” is the Common Name that you assigned for the certificate, such as an IP address, node name or domain name. For how to
assign a Common Name for the certificate, see Using Certificates for device security on page 60.)
For example: https://192.168.1.2/
(if the Common Name is the printer’s IP address) c You can now access the machine using HTTPS.
We recommend secure management (SNMPv3) be used along with the HTTPS protocol. If you use the
SNMPv3 protocol, follow the steps below.
Note
You can also change the SNMP settings by using BRAdmin Professional 3 or Web BRAdmin.
d Click Network Configuration.
e Enter a user name and a password. The default User Name is “admin” and the default Password is
“access”.
f Click Configure Protocol.

Security features g Make sure that the SNMP setting is enabled, and then click Advanced Setting of SNMP.
h You can configure the SNMP settings from the screen below.
We have three SNMP connection modes of operation.
SNMPv3 read-write access
With this mode the print server uses version 3 of the SNMP protocol. If you want to manage the print server securely, use this mode.
7
Note
When you use the SNMPv3 read-write access mode, please note the following.
• You can manage the print server by using BRAdmin Professional 3, Web BRAdmin or Web Based
Management only.
• We recommend secure SSL communication (HTTPS) be used.
• Except for BRAdmin Professional 3 and Web BRAdmin, all applications that use SNMPv1/v2c will be restricted. To allow the use of SNMPv1/v2c applications, use SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c
read-only access or SNMPv1/v2c read-write access mode.
7
53
Security features
SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c read-only access
In this mode the print server uses the read-write access of version 3 and the read-only access of version 1 and version 2c of the SNMP protocol.
Note
When you use the SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c read-only access mode, some Brother applications (e.g. BRAdmin Light) that access to the print server do not work properly since they authorize the read-only access of version 1 and version 2c. If you want to use all applications, use the SNMPv1/v2c
read-write access mode.
SNMPv1/v2c read-write access
In this mode the print server uses version 1 and version 2c of the SNMP protocol. You can use all Brother applications under this mode. However, it is not secure since it will not authenticate the user and the data will not be encrypted.
Note
For more information, see the Help text in Web Based Management.
Printing documents securely using SSL/TLS
To print documents securely over the Internet, you can use the IPPS protocol.
Note
• Communication using IPPS cannot prevent unauthorized access to the print server.
• IPPS is available for Windows

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. You can use Web Based Management, BRAdmin Professional 3 and Web BRAdmin to configure these settings. You can use POP before SMTP and SMTP-AUTH methods for E-mail Notification and E-mail reports.
E-mail server settings
You need to match the settings of SMTP authentication method with the method used by your E-mail server.
Contact your network administrator or your ISP (Internet Service Provider) about the E-mail server configuration.
You will also need to check SMTP-AUTH of SMTP Server Authentication Method to enable the SMTP server authentication.
7
55
Security features
SMTP settings
You can change the SMTP port number using Web Based Management. This is useful if your ISP (Internet
Service Provider) implements the “Outbound Port 25 Blocking (OP25B)” service.
By changing the SMTP port number to a specific number which your ISP is using for the SMTP server (for example, port 587), you would then be able to send an E-mail via the SMTP server.
If you can use both POP before SMTP and SMTP-AUTH, we recommend choosing SMTP-AUTH.
If you choose POP before SMTP for the SMTP Server Authentication Method, you need to configure the
POP3 settings. You can also use the APOP method if needed.
Sending or Receiving an E-mail securely using SSL/TLS
This machine supports SSL/TLS methods to send or receive an E-mail via an E-mail server that requires secure SSL/TLS communication. To send or receive E-mail via an E-mail server that is using SSL/TLS communication, you must configure SMTP over SSL/TLS or POP3 over SSL/TLS correctly.
Verifying Server Certificate
If you choose SSL or TLS for SMTP over SSL/TLS or POP3 over SSL/TLS, the Verify Server Certificate check box will be automatically checked to verify the Server Certificate.
• Before you verify the Server Certificate, you must import the CA certificate that has been issued by the
CA that signed the Server Certificate. Contact your system administrator about the CA certificate. For
importing the certificate, see Import and export a CA certificate on page 70.
• If you do not need to verify the Server Certificate, uncheck Verify Server Certificate.
Port Number
If you choose SSL or TLS, the SMTP Port or POP3 Port value will be changed to match the protocol. If you want to change the port number manually, enter the port number after you choose SMTP over
SSL/TLS or POP3 over SSL/TLS.
You must configure the POP3/SMTP communication method to match the E-mail server. For details of the
E-mail server settings, contact your network administrator or Internet services provider.
In most cases, the secured webmail services require the following settings:
(SMTP)
SMTP Port: 587
SMTP Server Authentication Method: SMTP-AUTH
SMTP over SSL/TLS: TLS
(POP3)
POP3 Port: 995

2 Network machine (your machine)
TCP/IP
In a smaller network of 2 or 3 computers, we recommend the Peer-to-Peer printing method as it is easier
to configure than the Network Shared printing method. See Network Shared printing on page 2.
Each computer must use the TCP/IP Protocol.
The Brother machine needs an appropriate IP address configuration.
If you are using a router, the Gateway address must be configured on the computers and the Brother machine.
1
Types of network connections and protocols
Network Shared printing
In a Network Shared environment, each computer sends data via a centrally controlled computer. This type of computer is often called a “Server” or a “Print Server”. Its job is to control the printing of all print jobs.

3 TCP/IP, USB or parallel (where available)
4 Network machine (your machine)
In a larger network, we recommend a Network Shared printing environment.
The “server” or the “print server” must use the TCP/IP print protocol.
The Brother machine needs to have an appropriate IP address configuration unless the machine is connected via the USB or the parallel interface at the server.
2
Types of network connections and protocols
Protocols
1
TCP/IP protocols and functions
Protocols are the standardized sets of rules for transmitting data on a network. Protocols allow users to gain access to network connected resources.
The print server used on the Brother machine supports the TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol) protocol.
TCP/IP is the most popular set of protocols used for communication such as Internet and E-mail. This protocol can be used in almost all operating systems such as Windows
®
, Windows Server
The following TCP/IP protocols are available on the Brother machine.
®
, Mac OS X and Linux
®
.
Note
• You can configure the protocol settings by using the HTTP interface (web browser). (See the Network
User's Guide.)
• To find what protocols your Brother machine supports, see the Network User's Guide.
• For information about supported security protocols, see Security protocols on page 19.
DHCP/BOOTP/RARP
By using the DHCP/BOOTP/RARP protocols, the IP address can be automatically configured.

Configuring your machine for a network
2
IP addresses, subnet masks and gateways
To use the machine in a networked TCP/IP environment, you need to configure its IP address and subnet mask. The IP address you assign to the print server must be on the same logical network as your host computers. If it is not, you must properly configure the subnet mask and the gateway address.
2
2
IP address
An IP address is a series of numbers that identifies each device connected to a network. An IP address consists of four numbers separated by dots. Each number is between 0 and 255.
Example: In a small network, you would normally change the final number.
• 192.168.1.1
• 192.168.1.2
• 192.168.1.3
How the IP address is assigned to your print server:
If you have a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server in your network the print server will automatically obtain its IP address from that server.
2
Note
On smaller networks, the DHCP server may also be the Router.
For more information on DHCP, BOOTP and RARP, see:
Using DHCP to configure the IP address on page 21.
Using BOOTP to configure the IP address on page 23.
Using RARP to configure the IP address on page 22.
If you do not have 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. For more information on
APIPA, see Using APIPA to configure the IP address on page 23.
2
7
Configuring your machine for a network
Subnet mask
Subnet masks restrict network communication.
Example: Computer 1 can talk to Computer 2
• Computer 1
IP Address: 192.168. 1. 2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.000
• Computer 2
IP Address: 192.168. 1. 3
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.000
Where the 0 is in the Subnet mask, there is no limit to communication at this part of the address. What this means in the above example is, we can communicate with any device that has an IP address that begins with
192.168.1.x. (where x. are numbers between 0 and 255).
2
2
Gateway (and router)
A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another network and sends data transmitted via the network to an exact destination. The router knows where to direct data that arrives at the gateway. If a destination is located on an external network, the router transmits data to the external network. If your network communicates with other networks, you may need to configure the Gateway IP address. If you do not know the Gateway IP address then contact your Network Administrator.
2
8
Configuring your machine for a network
IEEE 802.1x Authentication
IEEE 802.1x is an IEEE standard for wired and wireless network that limits an access from unauthorized network devices. Your Brother machine (supplicant) sends an authentication request to a RADIUS server
(Authentication server) through your access point (Authenticator). After your request has been verified by the
RADIUS server, your machine can have an access to the network.
2
Authentication methods
LEAP (For wireless network)
Cisco LEAP (Light Extensible Authentication Protocol) has been developed by Cisco Systems, Inc. which uses a user ID and password for authentication.
EAP-FAST
2
EAP-FAST (Extensible Authentication Protocol-Flexible Authentication via Secured Tunnel) has been developed by Cisco Systems, Inc. which uses a user ID and password for authentication, and symmetric key algorithms to achieve a tunneled authentication process.
The Brother machine supports the following inner authentications:
• EAP-FAST/NONE
• EAP-FAST/MS-CHAPv2
• EAP-FAST/GTC
EAP-MD5 (For wired network)
EAP-MD5 (Extensible Authentication Protocol-Message digest algorithm 5) uses a user ID and password for challenge-response authentication.
PEAP
PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol) has been developed by Microsoft Corporation, Cisco
Systems and RSA Security. PEAP creates an encrypt SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)/TLS (Transport Layer
Security) tunnel between a client and an authentication server, for sending a user ID and password. PEAP provides mutual authentication between the server and the client.
The Brother machine supports the following inner authentications:
• PEAP/MS-CHAPv2
• PEAP/GTC
2
9
Configuring your machine for a network
EAP-TTLS
EAP-TTLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol Tunneled Transport Layer Security) has been developed by Funk Software and Certicom. EAP-TTLS creates a similar encrypt SSL tunnel to PEAP, between a client and an authentication server, for sending a user ID and password. EAP-TTLS provides mutual authentication between the server and the client.
The Brother machine supports the following inner authentications:
• EAP-TTLS/CHAP
• EAP-TTLS/MS-CHAP
• EAP-TTLS/MS-CHAPv2
• EAP-TTLS/PAP
EAP-TLS
EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Protocol Transport Layer Security) requires digital certificate authentication both at a client and an authentication server.

Wireless network terms and concepts
3
Specifying your network
3
SSID (Service Set Identifier) and channels
You need to configure the SSID and a channel to specify the wireless network you want to connect to.
SSID
Each wireless network has its own unique network name and it is technically referred to as SSID or ESSID
(Extended Service Set Identifier). The SSID is a 32-byte or less value and is assigned to the access point.
The wireless network devices you want to associate to the wireless network should match the access point. The access point and wireless network devices regularly send wireless packets (referred to as a beacon) which has the SSID information. When your wireless network device receives a beacon, you can identify the wireless network that is close enough for the radio waves to reach your device.
Channels
Wireless networks use channels. Each wireless channel is on a different frequency. There are up to 14 different channels that can be used when using a wireless network. However, in many countries the number of channels available are restricted.
3
3
Security terms
3
Authentication and encryption
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
machine, it will not be able to connect to the wireless network. Therefore care must be taken when configuring these options. Please refer to the information in the Network User's Guide to see which authentication and encryption methods your Brother wireless machine supports.

11
Wireless network terms and concepts
Authentication and Encryption methods for a personal wireless network
Personal wireless network is a small network, for example using your machine in a wireless network at home, without IEEE 802.1x support.
If you want to use your machine in an IEEE 802.1x supported wireless network, see Authentication and
Encryption methods for an enterprise wireless network on page 13.
3
Authentication methods
Open system
Wireless devices are allowed to access the network without any authentication.
Shared key
A secret pre-determined key is shared by all devices that will access the wireless network.
The Brother wireless machine uses the WEP key as the pre-determined key.
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK
Enables a Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-shared key (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK), which enables the Brother wireless machine to associate with access points using TKIP for WPA-PSK or AES for WPA-PSK and
WPA2-PSK (WPA-Personal).
3
Encryption methods
None
No encryption method is used.
WEP

Using services
A service is a resource that can be accessed by computers that wish to print to the Brother print server. The
Brother print server provides the following predefined services (do a SHOW SERVICE command in the
Brother print server remote console to see a list of available services): Enter HELP at the command prompt for a list of supported commands.

Where “xxxxxxxxxxxx” is your machine’s MAC Address (Ethernet Address).
A
Other ways to set the IP address (for advanced users and administrators)
A
Using DHCP to configure the IP address
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is one of several automated mechanisms for IP address allocation. If you have a DHCP server in your network, the print server will automatically obtain its IP address from the DHCP server and register its name with any RFC 1001 and 1002-compliant dynamic name services.
Note
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. To change the Boot Method, use the machine’s control panel Network menu (for LCD models), BRAdmin applications, Remote Setup or Web Based Management
(web browser).
A
21
Appendix A
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:
00:80:77:31:01:07 BRN008077310107
(or BRW008077310107 for a wireless network)
Where the first entry is the MAC Address (Ethernet Address) of the print server and the second entry is the name of the print server (the name must be the same as the one you put in the /etc/hosts file).
If the RARP daemon is not already running, start it (depending on the system the command can be rarpd, rarpd -a
, in.rarpd -a or something else; type man rarpd or refer to your system documentation for additional information). To verify that the RARP daemon is running on a Berkeley UNIX based system, type the following command: ps -ax | grep -v grep | grep rarpd
For AT&T UNIX-based systems, type: ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep rarpd
The Brother print server will get the IP address from the RARP daemon when the machine is powered on.
A
A
22
Appendix A
Using BOOTP to configure the IP address
BOOTP is an alternative to RARP that has the advantage of allowing configuration of the subnet mask and gateway. In order to use BOOTP to configure the IP address make sure that BOOTP is installed and running on your host computer (it should appear in the /etc/services file on your host as a real service; type man bootpd
or refer to your system documentation for information). BOOTP is usually started up via the
/etc/inetd.conf
file, so you may need to enable it by removing the “#” in front of the bootp entry in that file. For example, a typical bootp entry in the /etc/inetd.conf file would be:
#bootp dgram udp wait /usr/etc/bootpd bootpd -i
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. Unfortunately, the exact format for doing this is not standardized, so you will need to refer to your system documentation to determine how to enter this information (many UNIX systems also have template examples in the bootptab file that you can use for reference). Some examples of typical
/etc/bootptab
entries include: (“BRN” below is “BRW” for a wireless network.)
BRN310107 1 00:80:77:31:01:07 192.168.1.2
and:
BRN310107:ht=ethernet:ha=008077310107:\ip=192.168.1.2:
Certain BOOTP host software implementations will not respond to BOOTP requests if you have not included a download filename in the configuration file. If this is the case, simply create a null file on the host and specify the name of this file and its path in the configuration file.
As with RARP, the print server will load its IP address from the BOOTP server when the machine is powered on.
A
A
Using APIPA to configure the IP address
The Brother print server supports the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol. With APIPA, DHCP clients automatically configure an IP address and subnet mask when a DHCP server is not available. The device chooses it's own IP address in the range 169.254.1.0 through to 169.254.254.255. The subnet mask is automatically set to 255.255.0.0 and the gateway address is set to 0.0.0.0.
By default, the APIPA protocol is enabled. If you want to disable the APIPA protocol, you can disable it using control panel of the machine (for LCD models), BRAdmin Light or Web Based Management (web browser).
A
23
Appendix A
Using ARP to configure the IP address
If you are unable to use the BRAdmin application and your network does not use a DHCP server, you can also use the ARP command. The ARP command is available on Windows
®
systems that have TCP/IP installed as well as UNIX systems. To use ARP enter the following command at the command prompt: arp -s ipaddress ethernetaddress ping ipaddress
Where ethernetaddress is the MAC Address (Ethernet Address) of the print server and ipaddress is the IP address of the print server. For example:
Windows
®
systems
Windows ® systems require the dash “-” character between each digit of the MAC Address (Ethernet
Address).
arp -s 192.168.1.2 00-80-77-31-01-07 ping 192.168.1.2
UNIX/Linux systems
Typically, UNIX and Linux systems require the colon “:” character between each digit of the MAC Address
(Ethernet Address).
arp -s 192.168.1.2 00:80:77:31:01:07 ping 192.168.1.2
Note
You must be on the same Ethernet segment (that is, there cannot be a router between the print server and operating system) to use the arp -s command.
If there is a router, you may use BOOTP or other methods described in this chapter to enter the IP address.
If your administrator has configured the system to deliver IP addresses using BOOTP, DHCP or RARP your Brother print server can receive an IP address from any one of these IP address allocation systems.
In which case, you will not need to use the ARP command. The ARP command only works once. For security reasons, once you have successfully configured the IP address of a Brother print server using the
ARP command, you cannot use the ARP command again to change the address. The print server will ignore any attempts to do this. If you wish to change the IP address again, use a Web Based Management
(web browser), TELNET (using the SET IP ADDRESS command) or factory reset the print server (which will then allow you to use the ARP command again).
A
A
24
Appendix A
Using the TELNET console to configure the IP address
You can also use the TELNET command to change the IP address.
TELNET is an effective method to change the machine’s IP address. But a valid IP address must already be programmed into the print server.
Type TELNET <command line> at the command prompt of the system prompt, where <command line> is the IP address of the print server. When you are connected, push the Return or Enter key to get the “#” prompt. Enter the password “access” (the password will not appear on the screen).
You will be prompted for a user name. Enter anything in response to this prompt.
You will then get the Local> prompt. Type SET IP ADDRESS ipaddress, where ipaddress is the desired IP address you wish to assign to the print server (check with your network administrator for the IP address to use). For example:
Local> SET IP ADDRESS 192.168.1.3
You will now need to set the subnet mask by typing SET IP SUBNET subnet mask, where subnet mask is the desired subnet mask you wish to assign to the print server (check with your network administrator for the subnet mask to use). For example:
Local> SET IP SUBNET 255.255.255.0
If you do not have any subnets, use one of the following default subnet masks:
255.0.0.0 for class A networks
255.255.0.0 for class B networks
255.255.255.0 for class C networks
The leftmost group of digits in your IP address can identify the type of network you have. The value of this group ranges from 1 through 127 for Class A networks (e.g., 13.27.7.1), 128 through 191 for Class B networks
(e.g.,128.10.1.30), and 192 through 255 for Class C networks (e.g., 192.168.1.4).
If you have a gateway (router), enter its address with the command SET IP ROUTER routeraddress, where routeraddress is the desired IP address of the gateway you wish to assign to the print server. For example:
Local> SET IP ROUTER 192.168.1.4
Type SET IP METHOD STATIC to set the method of IP access configuration to static.
To verify that you have entered the IP information correctly, type SHOW IP.
Type EXIT or Ctrl-D (i.e., hold down the control key and type “D”) to end the remote console session.
