Types of network connections and protocols

Protocols

TCP/IP protocols and functions

Protocols are the standardized sets of rules for transmitting data on a network. Protocols allow users to gain
access to network connected resources.
The print server used on the Brother machine supports the TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol) protocol.
TCP/IP is the most popular set of protocols used for communication such as Internet and E-mail. This protocol
can be used in almost all operating systems such as Windows
The following TCP/IP protocols are available on the Brother machine.
Note
• You can configure the protocol settings by using the HTTP interface (web browser). (See the Network
User's Guide.)
• To find what protocols your Brother machine supports, see the Network User's Guide.
DHCP/BOOTP/RARP
By using the DHCP/BOOTP/RARP protocols, the IP address can be automatically configured.
Note
To use the DHCP/BOOTP/RARP protocols, please contact your network administrator.
APIPA
If you do not assign an IP address manually (using the control panel (for LCD models) of the machine or the
BRAdmin software) or automatically (using a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server), the Automatic Private IP
Addressing (APIPA) protocol will automatically assign an IP address from the range 169.254.1.0 to
169.254.254.255.
ARP
Address Resolution Protocol performs mapping of an IP address to MAC address in a TCP/IP network.
DNS client
The Brother print server supports the Domain Name System (DNS) client function. This function allows the
print server to communicate with other devices by using its DNS name.
NetBIOS name resolution
Network Basic Input/Output System name resolution enables you to obtain the IP address of the other device
using its NetBIOS name during the network connection.
