Other ways to set the IP address (for advanced users and

administrators)

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is one of several automated mechanisms for IP address

allocation. If you have a DHCP server on your network, the print server will automatically obtain its IP address

from the DHCP server and register its name with any RFC 1001 and 1002-compliant dynamic name services.

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 Network menu (for LCD models), BRAdmin applications, Remote Setup or Web Based Management

(web browser).

The Brother print server's IP address can be configured using the Reverse ARP (RARP) facility 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

Where the first entry is the MAC Address (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).

If the RARP daemon is not already running, start it (depending on the system the command can be rarpd,

rarpd -a, in.rarpd -a or something else; type man rarpd or refer to your system documentation for

additional information). To verify that the RARP daemon is running on a Berkeley UNIX based system, type

the following command:

ps -ax | grep -v grep | grep rarpd

For AT&T UNIX-based systems, type:

ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep rarpd

The Brother print server will get the IP address from the RARP daemon when the machine is powered on.
