Using Certificates for device security

Your Brother machine supports the use of multiple security certificates allowing secure management,
authentication and communication with the machine. The following security certificate features can be used
with the machine.
SSL/TLS communication

 IEEE 802.1x authentication
 SSL communication for SMTP/POP3
The Brother machine supports the following certificates.
 Pre-installed certificate
Your machine has a pre-installed certificate.
Using this certificate, you can easily use the SSL/TLS communication without creating or installing a
certificate.
 Self-signed certificate
This print server issues its own certificate. Using this certificate, you can easily use the SSL/TLS
communication without having a certificate from a CA. (See Creating and installing a certificate
uu page 135.)
