Relay broadcasting 11
This function allows the Brother machine to receive a document over the Internet, and then relay it to other
fax machines through conventional telephone lines.
If you wish to use your machine as a relay broadcast device, you must specify the domain name that you trust
at the machine, in other words, the portion of the name after the “@” sign.
A trusted domain refers to the E-mail address. For example, if the other party’s address is bob@brother.com,
then we identify the domain as brother.com. If the E-mail address is jack@brother.co.uk, then we identify the
domain as brother.co.uk.
Use care in selecting a trusted domain since any user on a trusted domain will be able to send a relay
broadcast. You can register up to 5 domain names.
Relay broadcast can support the relay of a document up to a maximum of 48 fax machines through
conventional telephone lines.
Relay broadcast from your machine 11
In this example, your machine has an E-mail address of FAX@brother.com, you wish to send a document
from this machine to another machine in England with an E-mail address of UKFAX@brother.co.uk, this
machine will then forward the document to a standard fax machine using a conventional telephone line. If
your E-mail address is FAX@brother.com, you must configure a trusted domain name of brother.com on the
machine in England that will broadcast the document to the conventional fax machine. If you do not enter the
domain name information, then the machine in the middle (the machine that will broadcast the document) will
not trust any internet jobs that it receives from the machine in the @brother.com domain.
After the trusted domain is set, you can send the document from your machine [I.E. FAX@brother.com] by
entering the E-mail address of the machine [I.E. UKFAX@brother.co.uk] that will forward the document
followed by the phone number of the fax that will receive the document. The following is an example of how
to enter the E-mail address and phone number.
