Authentication Methods for a Personal Wireless Network
A personal wireless network is a small network (such as a home wireless network) without IEEE 802.1x
support.
•
Open system
Wireless devices are allowed to access the network without any authentication.
• Shared key
A secret pre-determined key is shared by all devices that will access the wireless network. The Brother
wireless machine uses the WEP key as the pre-determined key.
• WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK
Enables a Wi-Fi Protected Access
®
Pre-shared key (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK), which enables the Brother
wireless machine to associate with access points using TKIP for WPA-PSK or AES for WPA-PSK and
WPA2-PSK (WPA-Personal).
Authentication Methods for an Enterprise Wireless Network
An enterprise wireless network is a large network, for example using your machine in a business enterprise
wireless network, with IEEE 802.1x support. If you configure your machine in an IEEE 802.1x supported
wireless network, you can use the following authentication methods.
•
LEAP
• EAP-FAST
• PEAP
• EAP-TTLS
• EAP-TLS
The authentication methods above use the user ID less than 64 characters and a password of less than 32
characters in length.
Auto Reduction
Reduces the size of incoming faxes.
Automatic Fax Transmission
Sending a fax without picking up the handset of the external telephone.
Automatic Redial
A feature that enables your machine to redial the last fax number after five minutes if the fax did not go through
because the line was busy.
Backup Print
Your machine prints a copy of every fax that is received and stored in memory. This is a safety feature so you will
not lose messages during a power failure.
Beeper Volume
Volume setting for the sound when you press a button or make an error.
