TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 11 - 3

NC9100h_FM6.0

The BRAdmin Professional utility can use the IPX/SPX or TCP/IP 
protocols to communicate with the Brother Print/Fax server.

If you wish to use the TCP/IP protocol to manage the Print/Fax server 
make sure that the Print/Fax server has a valid IP address. If you are 
not using DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you will want to change the IP 
address.There are two ways to change the IP address using the 
BRAdmin Professional utility:

■

Use the IPX/SPX protocol.

■

Use the TCP/IP protocol and let BRAdmin Professional utility find 
the Brother Print/Fax server as an unconfigured device.

Using BRAdmin Professional utility and the IPX/
SPX Protocol to set the IP address

If your PC is using the Novell Netware Client software and is using 
the IPX/SPX protocol, do the following:

1

Select IPX/SPX filter in the left frame of the main window.

2

Check the Print/Fax server name (the default node name is 

BRN_xxxxxx

, where 

xxxxxx

 is the last six digits of the 

Ethernet address (MAC address)).

If you cannot find your server name, select the Device menu and 
choose Search Active Devices (you can also press the F4 key) and 
try again.

3

Select the Print/Fax server that you wish to configure and 
double click it. You will be asked for a password. The default 
password is 

access

.

4

Select the TCP/IP tab and set the IP address, Subnet mask 
and Gateway as needed. 

You can find the node name and MAC address by printing 
out the machine configuration page. For information on how 
to print the configuration page on your Print/Fax server, see 
Resetting the Print/Fax Sever back to factory settings (Test 
Switch) on page 13-4.
