Home > Glossary MAC Address The MAC Address (Ethernet Address) is a unique number assigned for the machine's network interface. mDNS Multicase DNS (mDNS) allows the Brother print server to configure itself to work in an OS X Simple Network Configuration system automatically. NetBIOS Name Resolution Network Basic Input/Output System (NetBIOS) name resolution enables you to obtain the IP address of the other device using its NetBIOS name during the network connection. Network Configuration Report The Network Configuration Report prints a report listing the current network configuration, including the network print server settings. Network Connection Repair Tool The Network Connection Repair Tool is a program Brother provides to correct the driver's settings so that they match the machine's network settings. To use the Network Connection Repair Tool, ask your network administrator. Network Key The Network Key is a password, which is used when the data is encrypted or decrypted. The Network Key is also described as the Password, Security Key, or Encryption Key. The table shows the number of characters of the key to use for each setting. Open system/Shared key with WEP This key is a 64-bit or a 128-bit value that must be entered in an ASCII or hexadecimal format. 64 (40) bit 128 (104) bit ASCII Uses five text characters. For example, "WSLAN" (case-sensitive). Uses 13 text characters. For example, "Wirelesscomms" (casesensitive). Hexadecimal Uses 10 digits of hexadecimal data. For example, "71f2234aba" (not casesensitive). Uses 26 digits of hexadecimal data. For example, "71f2234ab56cd709e5412aa2ba" (not casesensitive). WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK and TKIP or AES Uses a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) that is eight or more characters in length, up to a maximum of 63 characters. Network Shared Printing Network Shared Printing is a type of printing in a network shared environment. In a network shared environment, each computer sends data via a server or print server. 377
