group ranges from 1 through 127 for Class A networks (e.g., 13.27.7.1), 128 through 191 for Class B networks
(e.g.,128.10.1.30), and 192 through 255 for Class C networks (e.g., 192.168.1.4).

Using the Brother Web BRAdmin server software for IIS*
to configure the IP address
The Web BRAdmin server software is designed to manage all LAN/WAN Brother network connected devices.
By installing the Web BRAdmin server software on a computer running IIS*, Administrators with a web
browser can connect to the Web BRAdmin server, which then communicates with the device itself. Unlike the
BRAdmin Professional utility - which is designed for Windows
®
systems only - the Web BRAdmin server
software can be accessed from any client computer with a web browser that supports Java.
Please note this software is not included on the CD-ROM that was supplied with your Brother product.

IIS* = Internet Information Server 4.0, 5.0 or 5.1
