TCP/IP Configuration
Assigning TCP/IP Information

Overview

The TCP/IP protocol requires that each device on the network have it's own unique
IP address. Use the following information to learn about IP address configuration.
By default Brother print servers have a sample IP address of 192.0.0.192, however,
you can easily change this IP address number to match with the IP address details of
your network. This can be done in any of the following ways:
1. BRAdmin Professional utility (for Windows 95/98/Me/NT 4.0/2000/XP
using the TCP/IP protocol)
2. DHCP, Reverse ARP (rarp) or BOOTP
3. The ARP command.
Other ways to CHANGE the IP address once it is already set:
1. TELNET
2. HTTP (Web browser)
3. Other SNMP based management utility
These configuration methods are described in the following paragraphs.
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 router (gateway).
