41. 2 Using DHCP to configure the IP address The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol DHCP is one of several automated mechanisms for IP address allocation If you have a DHCP server in your network the print server will automatically obtain its IP address from 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 BRAdmin Light utility 100 Appendix A Using RARP to configure the IP address 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 BRN0O08077310107 or BRWO08077310107 for a wireless network 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 rarpdor refer to your system documentat
