TCP/IP Configuration 
 
 
Assigning TCP/IP Information 
 
Overview 
 
The TCP/IP protocol requires that each device on the network have its own 
unique IP address. Use the following information to learn about IP address 
configuration. 
 
By default Brother Print / Fax servers have a sample IP address of 192.0.0.192, 
however, you can easily change this IP address number to match with the IP 
address details of your network. This can be done in...

CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 
1-2
 
Using the FAX/MFC front panel to allocate 
an IP address 
 
Refer to chapter 2 for details on how to configure IP address information using 
the FAX/MFC control panel. By using the front panel of the FAX/MFC, you can 
program the IP address details at the same time that other FAX/MFC parameters 
are configured. 
 
Using BRAdmin and the TCP/IP Protocol 
to set the IP address 
  
If your PC has only the TCP/IP protocol, do the following: 
  
1.  Select TCP/IP filter in...

CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 
1-3
 
Using BRAdmin and the IPX/SPX Protocol 
to set the IP address 
 
If your PC has Novell Netware Client software and is using the IPX/SPX 
protocol, do the following: 
 
1.  Select IPX/SPX filter in the left frame of the main window. 
2.  Check the Print / Fax server name (the default node name will be 
BRN_xxxxxx, where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet 
address (MAC address)). 
 
If you cannot find your server name, select the Device menu and choose...

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/XP). 
 
 
 
The BRAdmin application can use the IPX/SPX or TCP/IP protocols to 
communicate with the Brother Print / Fax server. As the default IP address of 
Brother Print / Fax servers is 192.0.0.192, the Print / Fax server will probably be 
incompatible with the IP address numbering scheme on your network. If you are 
not using DHCP, BOOTP or...

CHAPTER 1 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 
1-5
   
Using DHCP to Configure the IP address 
 
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is one of several automated 
mechanisms for IP address allocation. If you have a DHCP Server in your 
network (typically a Unix, Windows
® NT®/2000 or Novell Netware network) the 
Print / Fax server will automatically obtains its IP address from DHCP server and 
register its name with any RFC 1001 and 1002-compliant dynamic name services. 
 
If you do not want your Print / Fax...

Using ARP to Configure the Print / Fax 
server IP Address 
 
If you are unable to use the BRAdmin application, FAX/MFC front panel and 
your network does not use a DHCP server, you can also use the ARP command. 
ARP is the simplest method of configuring the Print / Fax server IP address. The 
ARP command is available on Windows
® systems that have TCP/IP installed as 
w ell as Unix systems. To use arp enter the following command the command prompt: 
 
arp -s...
