RARP mode
Brother Print / Fax server 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 BRN_310107
Where the first entry is the Ethernet address of the Print / Fax server
and the second entry is the name of the Print / Fax 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 / Fax server will get the IP address from the rarp
daemon when it is powered on.
BOOTP mode
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”.
