TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 10 - 10

Certain BOOTP host software implementations will not respond to 
BOOTP requests if you have not included a download filename in the 
configuration file; if this is the case, simply create a null file on the host 
and specify the name of this file and its path in the configuration file.

As with rarp, the print server will load its IP address from the BOOTP 
server when the printer is powered on.

Configuring the IP Address with BRCONFIG

Users of Novell networks have additional alternatives for configuring 
the IP address of Brother print servers by using the remote console 
facility. 

On a NetWare network, you can use the BRCONFIG utility which is 
included with every print server.

Execute BRCONFIG from the Windows

® 

menu. Select the 

corresponding server name from the list of print servers. When you 
get the message that the print server is connected, type the default 
password access in response to the “#” prompt.

You will be prompted for a user name. Enter anything in response to 
this prompt.

You will then get the 

Local>

 prompt. Type 

SET IP ADDRESS

 

ipaddress

, where 

ipaddress

 is the desired IP address you wish 

to assign to the print server (check with your network manager for the 
IP address to use). For example:

Local> SET IP ADDRESS 192.189.207.3

You will now need to set the subnet mask by typing 

SET IP SUBNET 

subnet mask

, where 

subnet mask

 is the desired subnet mask 

you wish to assign to the print server (check with your network 
manager for the subnet mask to use). For example:

Local> SET IP SUBNET 255.255.255.0
