Appendix B Where ethernetaddress is the MAC Address (Ethernet Address) of the print server and ipaddress is the IP address of the print server. For example:  Windows® systems Windows® systems require the dash "-" character between each digit of the MAC Address (Ethernet Address). arp -s 192.168.1.2 00-80-77-31-01-07 ping 192.168.1.2  UNIX®/Linux® systems Typically, UNIX and Linux® systems require the colon ":" character between each digit of the MAC Address (Ethernet Address). arp -s 192.168.1.2 00:80:77:31:01:07 ping 192.168.1.2 NOTE You must be on the same Ethernet segment (that is, there cannot be a router between the print server and operating system) to use the arp -s command. If there is a router, you may use BOOTP or other methods described in this chapter to enter the IP address. If your administrator has configured the system to deliver IP addresses using BOOTP, DHCP or RARP your Brother print server can receive an IP address from any one of these IP address allocation systems. In which case, you will not need to use the ARP command. The ARP command only works once. For security reasons, once you have successfully configured the IP address of a Brother print server using the ARP command, you cannot use the ARP command again to change the address. The print server will ignore any attempts to do this. If you wish to change the IP address again, use a Web Based Management (web browser) or factory reset the print server (which will then allow you to use the ARP command again). B 92

ethernetaddress
is the MAC Address (Ethernet Address) of the print server and
ipaddress
is
the IP address of the print server. For example:

systems
Windows

systems require the dash “-” character between each digit of the MAC Address (Ethernet
Address).

systems require the colon “:” character between each digit of the MAC Address
(Ethernet Address).
arp -s 192.168.1.2 00:80:77:31:01:07
ping 192.168.1.2
NOTE
You must be on the same Ethernet segment (that is, there cannot be a router between the print server and
operating system) to use the arp -s command.
If there is a router, you may use BOOTP or other methods described in this chapter to enter the IP address.
If your administrator has configured the system to deliver IP addresses using BOOTP, DHCP or RARP
your Brother print server can receive an IP address from any one of these IP address allocation systems.
In which case, you will not need to use the ARP command. The ARP command only works once. For
security reasons, once you have successfully configured the IP address of a Brother print server using the
ARP command, you cannot use the ARP command again to change the address. The print server will
ignore any attempts to do this. If you wish to change the IP address again, use a Web Based Management
(web browser) or factory reset the print server (which will then allow you to use the ARP command again).
