Control panel features NETWORK menu (For HL-5380DN) 8 Before using your Brother product in a network environment, you need to configure the correct TCP/IP settings. In this section, you will learn how to configure the network settings using the control panel, located on the front of the machine. The NETWORK menu selections of the control panel allow you to set up the Brother machine for your network configuration. Press any of the Menu buttons (+, -, Set or Back) to display the main menu. Then press + or - to choose NETWORK. Proceed to the menu selection you wish to configure. For additional infomation on the menu see Function table and factory default settings (For HL-5380DN) on page 188. Please note that the machine is supplied with the BRAdmin Light utility and Web Based Management (web browser), which also can be used to configure many aspects of the network. See Changing the print server settings on page 16 for a wired connection. TCP/IP 8 This menu has 7 sections: BOOT METHOD, IP ADDRESS=, SUBNET MASK=, GATEWAY=, IP BOOT TRIES, APIPA and IPV6. 8 BOOT METHOD 8 This selection controls how the machine obtains an IP address. The default setting is AUTO. Note If you do not want your print server configured via DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you must set the BOOT METHOD to STATIC so that the print server has a static IP address. 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 machine's control panel, BRAdmin Light utility or Web Based Management (web browser). a Press any of the Menu buttons (+, -, Set or Back) of the control panel on your machine. b Press + or - to choose NETWORK. Press Set. c Press + or - to choose TCP/IP. Press Set. d Press + or - to choose BOOT METHOD. Press Set. e Press + or - to choose AUTO 1, STATIC 2, RARP 3, BOOTP 4 or DHCP 5. Press Set. 1 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, then 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 IP Address is scanned 111

NETWORK menu (For HL-5380DN)

Before using your Brother product in a network environment, you need to configure the correct TCP/IP

settings.

In this section, you will learn how to configure the network settings using the control panel, located on the

front of the machine.

The

NETWORK

menu selections of the control panel allow you to set up the Brother machine for your network

configuration. Press any of the Menu buttons (

to choose

NETWORK

. Proceed to the menu selection you wish to configure. For additional infomation on the

menu see

on page 188.

Please note that the machine is supplied with the BRAdmin Light utility and Web Based Management (web

browser), which also can be used to configure many aspects of the network. See

settings

on page 16 for a wired connection.

TCP/IP

This menu has 7 sections:

BOOT METHOD

IP ADDRESS=

SUBNET MASK=

GATEWAY=

IP BOOT TRIES

and

IPV6

BOOT METHOD

This selection controls how the machine obtains an IP address. The default setting is

AUTO

Note

If you do not want your print server configured via DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you must set the

BOOT METHOD

STATIC

so that the print server has a static IP address. 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 machine’s control

panel, BRAdmin Light utility or Web Based Management (web browser).

to the machine, then the IP address supplied by the DHCP server will be used. If no DHCP server is available, then 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 IP Address is scanned
