STATIC mode
In this mode the MFC IP address must be manually assigned. Once entered the IP
address is locked to the assigned address.
AUTO mode
In this mode, the MFC 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 MFC,
then the IP address supplied by the DHCP server will used. If no DHCP server is
available, then the MFC will scan for a BOOTP server. If a BOOTP server is
available, and it is configured correctly, the MFC will take its IP address from the
BOOTP server. After it is initially powered ON, it may take a few minutes for
the MFC to scan the network for a server.
If your MFC supports “POWER SAVE mode” and you are using the AUTO
Boot mode, POWER SAVE must be set to OFF.
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".
