Introduction
Network function features
Brother machine has the following basic network functions.
Network printing
The print server provides printing services for Windows® 98/98SE/Me/NT®/2000/XP supporting the TCP/IP protocols and Macintosh® supporting TCP/IP (Mac OS® 9.1-9.2 / Mac OS® X 10.2.4 or greater for a wired network).
1
Network scanning
You can scan documents over the network to your computer or to a central server (See Chapter 4 for Windows® and Chapter 10 for Macintosh® of the Software User's Guide on the CD-ROM).
Network PC-FAX (Not available for DCP-8065DN)
You can directly send and receive a PC file as a PC-FAX on your network (See Chapter 6 for Windows® and Chapter 7 for Macintosh® of the Software User's Guide on the CD-ROM for complete description).
Fax to server
The Fax to Server feature allows the machine to scan documents and send them via a separate fax server. Unlike Internet Fax or I-Fax, the Fax to Server feature utilizes a server to send the documents as fax data over phone or T-1 lines.
Management utility
BRAdmin Professional (for Windows®)
The BRAdmin Professional utility provides powerful, easy to use configuration and management of fax and network settings.
BRAdmin Light (for Mac OS® X 10.2.4 or greater)
BRAdmin Light is a utility for viewing machine status and configuring network settings from a computer running Mac OS® X 10.2.4 or greater.
2
Introduction
Remote Setup (Not available for DCP-8065DN)
The Remote Setup software allows you to configure network settings from a Windows® or Macintosh® (Mac OS® X 10.2.4 or greater). (See Chapter 5 for Windows® and Chapter 11for Macintosh® of the Software User's Guide on the CD-ROM).
1
Types of Network Connections
Generally speaking, there are two types of networks: A Peer-to-Peer network and a shared Network.
Network Connection Example
Peer-to-Peer printing using TCP/IP
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.

TCP/IP
Switch or Router
TCP/IP
In a smaller network of 2 or 3 computers, we recommend the Peer-to-Peer printing method as it is easier to configure than the Network Shared Printing method described on the following page. See Network Shared Printing on page 1-4. Each computer must use the TCP/IP Protocol. The Brother machine needs an appropriate IP address configuration. If you are using a router, the Gateway address must be configured on the computers and the Brother machine.
3
Introduction
Network Shared Printing
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.

Also known as "Server" or "Print Server"
Network printer (your machine)
Network Shared In a larger network, we recommend a Network Shared printing environment. The "Server" or the "Print Server" must use the TCP/IP Print Protocol. The Brother machine needs an appropriate IP address configuration unless the machine is shared via the parallel port or USB port of the server.

Introduction
Protocols
TCP/IP Protocols 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) protocols. TCP/IP is the most popular set of protocols and can be used in almost all operating systems such as Windows®, Macintosh® and Linux. The following TCP/IP protocols are available on this Brother product.
DHCP/BOOTP/RARP
By using the DHCP/BOOTP/RARP protocols, the IP address can be automatically configured. Note To use the DHCP/BOOTP/RARP protocols, please contact your Network Administrator.
APIPA
If you do not assign an IP address manually (using the MFL-Pro Suite Installation or BRAdmin software) or automatically (using a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server), the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol will automatically assign an IP address from the range 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255.
DNS client
The Brother print server supports the Domain Name Service (DNS) client function. This function allows the print server to communicate with other devices by using its DNS name.
LPR/LPD
Commonly used printing protocol on a TCP/IP network.
Port 9100
Another commonly used printing protocol on a TCP/IP network.
5
Introduction
SMTP client
The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) allows the Brother machine to send and receive e-mails.
IPP
The Internet Printing Protocol (IPP Version 1.0) allows you to print documents via the internet.
1
mDNS
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
The Brother print server supports TELNET server for command line configuration.
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used to manage network devices including computers, routers and Brother network ready machines.
Web server (HTTP)
The Brother print server is equipped with a built in web server that allows you to monitor its status or change its configuration settings. Note We recommend Internet Explorer 6.0 (or higher) or Netscape Navigator 7.1 (or higher). If a different web browser is used, make sure it is compatible with HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1.
FTP
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) allows the Brother machine to scan black and white or colour documents directly to an FTP server located locally on your network or on the internet.
LDAP
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) allows the Brother machine to search for information such as fax numbers and E-mail addresses from an LDAP server.
IPv6
This machine is compatible with the IPv6, the next generation internet protocol. For more information on the IPv6 protocol, visit http://solutions.brother.com.

Configuring your network printer
Overview
Before you can use your Brother machine on your network, you need to install the Brother software and also configure the appropriate TCP/IP network settings on the machine itself. To do this, we recommend that you use the automatic installer on the Brother CD-ROM as this will guide you through the software and network installation. If you do not wish to use the automatic installer, or you do not understand some of the terms used by the automatic installer, refer to the remainder of this chapter for more information.
Note If you do not wish to, or are unable to use the automatic installer or any of Brother's software tools, you can also use the machine's control panel to change network settings. For more information, see Control Panel Setup on page 13.
2
IP addresses, subnet masks and gateways
To use the machine in a networked TCP/IP environment, you need to configure its IP address and subnet mask. The IP address you assign to the print server must be on the same logical network as your host computers. If it is not, you must properly configure the subnet mask and the gateway address.
IP address
An IP address is a series of numbers that identifies each device connected to a network. An IP address consists of four numbers separated by dots. Each number is between 0 and 255. Example: In a small network, you would normally change the final number. 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.3 If you have a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server in your network (typically a UNIX®/Linux or Windows® 2000/XP network) the print server will automatically obtain its IP address from that server.
Note On smaller networks, the DHCP server may be the Router.
For more information on DHCP, BOOTP and RARP, see Using DHCP to configure the IP address on page 69, Using BOOTP to configure the IP address on page 70 and Using RARP to configure the IP address on page 70.

Configuring your network printer
If you do not have a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server, the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol will automatically assign an IP address from the range 169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255. For more information on APIPA, see Using APIPA to configure the IP address on page 71. If the APIPA protocol is disabled, the default IP address of a Brother print server is 192.0.0.192. However, you can easily change this IP address number to match with the IP address details of your network. For information on how to change the IP address, see Setting the IP address and subnet mask on page 9.

Subnet mask
Subnet masks restrict network communication. Example: PC1 can talk to PC2 PC1 IP Address:192.168.1.2 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 PC2 IP Address:192.168.1.3 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Note 0 denotes that there is no limit to communication at this part of the address. In the above example, we can communicate with anything that has an IP address that begins with 192.168.1.X
Gateway (and router)
A gateway is a network point that acts as an entrance to another network and sends data transmitted via the network to an exact destination. The router knows where to direct data that arrives at the gateway. If a destination is located at an external network, the router transmits data to the external network. If your network communicates with other networks, you may need to configure the Gateway IP address. If you do not know the Gateway IP address then contact your Network Administrator.

(For MFC-8460N and MFC-8860DN) Press Menu, 6, 1, 1. (For DCP-8065DN) Press Menu, 4, 1, 1. Press or to select Auto, Static, RARP, BOOTP or DHCP. Press OK. Press Stop/Exit.
Auto mode In this mode, the machine 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 machine, then the IP address supplied by the DHCP server will be used. If no DHCP server is available, the machine will scan for a BOOTP server. If a BOOTP server is available, and it is configured correctly, the machine will take its IP address from the BOOTP server. If a BOOTP server is not available, the machine will scan for a RARP server. If a RARP server also does not answer, the machine will use an APIPA address, see Using APIPA to configure the IP address on page 71. This whole process can take 2 to 3 minutes so we recommend printing a Network Configuration List to confirm the network settings are set correctly. Static mode In this mode the machine's IP address must be manually assigned. Once entered the IP address is locked to the assigned address.
13
Control Panel Setup
RARP mode Brother print 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
3
Where the first entry is the Ethernet address of the print server and the second entry is the name of the print 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 server will get the IP address from the RARP daemon when it is powered on. BOOTP mode BOOTP is an alternative to RARP. However, unlike RARP, it is able to configure 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 Note Depending on the system, this entry might be called "bootps" instead of "bootp". In order to enable BOOTP, simply use an editor to delete the "#" (if there is no "#", then BOOTP is already enabled). Then edit the BOOTP configuration file (usually /etc/bootptab) and enter the name, network type (1 for Ethernet), Ethernet address and the IP address, subnet mask and gateway of the print server. Unfortunately, the exact format for doing this is not standardized, so you will need to refer to your system documentation to determine how to enter this information (many UNIX® systems also have template examples in the bootptab file that you can use for reference). Some examples of typical /etc/bootptab entries include: BRN_310107 1 and: BRN_310107:ht=ethernet:ha=008077310107:\ ip=192.189.207.3: 00:80:77:31:01:07 192.189.207.3
14
Control Panel Setup
Certain BOOTP host software implementations will not respond to BOOTP requests if you have not included a download filename in the configuration file; if this is the case, simply create a null file on the host and specify the name of this file and its path in the configuration file. As with RARP, the print server will load its IP address from the BOOTP server when the printer is powered on.
3
DHCP mode 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® 2000/XP network) the print server automatically obtains its IP address from DHCP server and register its name with any RFC 1001 and 1002-compliant dynamic name services. Note If you do not want your print server to be configured using DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you must set the BOOT METHOD to static, this will prevent the print server from trying to obtain an IP address from any of these systems. To change the BOOT METHOD, use the control panel, Web browser or by using the BRAdmin application.
IP Address
This field displays the current IP address of the machine. If the BOOT Method is set to Static, enter the IP address that you wish to assign to the machine (check with your network manager for the IP address to use). If you have selected a method other than Static, the machine will attempt to determine its IP address using the DHCP, RARP or BOOTP protocols. The default IP address of your machine will probably be incompatible with the IP address numbering scheme of your network. We recommend that you contact your network manager for the correct IP address settings.
