Introduction Types of network connections 1 1 Network connection example 1 Generally there are two types of network connections: Peer-to-Peer and Network Shared environment. Peer-to-Peer printing using TCP/IP 1 In a Peer-to-Peer environment, each computer directly sends and receives data to each device. There is no central server controlling file access or printer sharing.
Introduction Network Shared printing 1 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. 1 Client computer 2 Also known as “Server” or “Print server” 3 TCP/IP or USB (where available) 4 Printer (your machine) In a larger network, we recommend a Network Shared printing environment.
Introduction Wireless network connection examples 1 1 Connected to a computer with an access point on the network (Infrastructure mode) 1 This type of network has a central access point at the heart of the network. The access point can also act as a bridge or a gateway to a wired network. When the Brother wireless machine (your machine) is part of this network, it receives all print jobs via an access point.
Introduction Protocols 1 1 TCP/IP protocols and functionalities 1 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 this Brother product 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.
Introduction IPP 1 1 The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP Version 1.0) allows you to print documents directly to any accessible printer via the internet. mDNS 1 mDNS allows the Brother print server to automatically configure itself to work in a Mac OS® X Simple Network Configured system. (Mac OS® X 10.2.4 or greater). TELNET 1 The Brother print server supports TELNET server for command line configuration.
Introduction IPv6 1 1 This machine is compatible with IPv6, the next generation internet protocol. For more information on the IPv6 protocol, visit http://solutions.brother.com. Other protocol 1 LLTD 1 The Link Layer Topology Discovery protocol (LLTD) lets you locate the Brother machine easily on the Windows Vista® network map. Your Brother machine will be shown with a distinctive icon and the node name. The default setting for this protocol is Off.

12 Security features 12 Overview 12 This chapter explains the security features supported by your Brother machine and how to configure them. You can also learn how to manage your network printer securely. Security methods for E-mail notification 12 The Brother print server supports the following security methods for E-mail notification. POP before SMTP (PbS) 12 The user authentication method for sending E-mail from a client.
Security features Using E-mail notification with user authentication 12 To use the E-mail notification function via secure SMTP server that requires a user authentication, you need to use POP before SMTP or SMTP-AUTH method. These methods prevent an unauthorized user from accessing the mail server. You can use Web Based Management (web browser), BRAdmin Professional and Web BRAdmin to configure these settings. Note You need to match the settings of POP3/SMTP authentication with one of the E-mail servers.
Security features g You can configure the POP3/SMTP settings on this page. Note • You can also 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, and you are not using the ISP’s SMTP server. By changing the SMTP port number to a specific number which your SMTP server decide (for example, port 587), you can still send an E-mail via the SMTP server you currently use.
Security features Managing your network printer securely using BRAdmin Professional (for Windows®) 12 To use the BRAdmin Professional utility securely, you need to follow the points below. We strongly recommend to use the latest version of the BRAdmin Professional utility or Web BRAdmin that are available as a download from http://solutions.brother.com. If you use an older version of BRAdmin 1 to manage your brother devices the user authentication will not be secure.

A Appendix A A Using services A 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.
Appendix A Using BOOTP to configure the IP address A 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.
Appendix A Using RARP to configure the IP address A 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: (“BRN” below is “BRW” for a wireless network.
Appendix A Using ARP to configure the IP address A 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.
Appendix A Using the TELNET console to configure the IP address A 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 at the command prompt of the system prompt, where is the IP address of the print server. When you are connected, push the Return or Enter key to get the “#” prompt.
Appendix A Using the Brother Web BRAdmin server software for IIS to configure the IP address A The Web BRAdmin server software is designed to manage all LAN/WAN Brother network connected devices. By installing the Web BRAdmin server software on a computer running IIS 1, administrators with a web browser can connect to the Web BRAdmin server, which then communicates with the device itself.
