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 through APIPA facility, see Using APIPA to configure the IP address on page A-3. After it is initially powered ON, it may take a few minutes for the machine to scan the network for a server. Static mode In this mode the machine's IP address must be manually assigned. Once entered the IP address is locked to the assigned address. RARP mode The Brother print server IP address can be configured using the Reverse ARP (RARP) service on your host computer. This is done by editing the /etc/ethers file (if this file does not exist, you can create it) with an entry similar to the following: 00:80:77:31:01:07 BRN_310107 (or BRW_310107 for a wireless network) Where the first entry is the Ethernet address of the print server and the second entry is the name of the print server (the name must be the same as the one you put in the /etc/hosts file). 4 - 2
