Configuring The Protocol Settings - Brother Network User Manual

Configuring the protocol settings

You can enable or disable each protocol and security method using Web Based Management (web browser).
Note
We recommend Microsoft
Safari 1.3 for Macintosh. Please also make sure that JavaScript and Cookies are always enabled in
whichever browser you use. To use a web browser, you will need to know the IP address of the print
server.
a
Start your web browser.
b
Type "http://printer's IP address/" into your browser (where "printer's IP address" is
the printer's IP address or the node name).
For example:
http://192.168.1.2/
Note
• If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using a Domain Name System, you can also enter
the DNS name of the print server.
®
• For Windows users, as the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names, you can also enter the
NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen on the Network Configuration List. To
learn how to print the Network Configuration List, see Printing the Network Configuration List on page 45.
The NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name and by default it will appear as
"BRNxxxxxxxxxxxx".
c
Click Network Configuration.
d
Enter a user name and a password. The default User Name is admin and the default Password is
access.
e
Click OK.
f
Click Configure Protocols.
Now you can configure the protocol settings.
Note
If you change the protocol settings, restart the printer after clicking Submit to activate the configuration.
