The Simple Network Management Protocol version 3 (SNMPv3) provides user authentication and data
encryption to manage network devices securely. To manage your network machine securely, we recommend
using the SNMPv3 protocol when you use BRAdmin Professional 4.
1. Start your web browser.
2. Type "https://machine's IP address" in your browser's address bar (where "machine's IP address" is the

machine's IP address).
For example:
https://192.168.1.2

3. If required, type the password in the

Login

field, and then click

Login

.

The default password to manage this machine’s settings is located on the back of the machine and marked
"

Pwd

".

4. Go to the navigation menu, and then click

Description

SNMP v1/v2c
read-write
access

The scan server uses version 1 and version 2c of the SNMP protocol. You can use all
Brother applications in this mode. However, it is not secure since it will not authenticate
the user, and data will not be encrypted.

SNMPv3 read-
write access
and v1/v2c
read-only
access

The scan server uses the read-write access of version 3 and the read-only access of
version 1 and version 2c of the SNMP protocol.

When you use

SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c read-only access

mode, some Brother applications (such as BRAdmin Light) that access the
scan server do not work correctly since they authorize the read-only access of
version 1 and version 2c. If you want to use all applications, we recommend
using the

SNMP v1/v2c read-write access

mode.

SNMPv3 read-
write access

The scan server uses version 3 of the SNMP protocol. If you want to manage the scan
server securely, use this mode.

When you use the

SNMPv3 read-write access

mode, note the following:

You can use only BRAdmin Professional or Web Based Management to
manage the scan server.

Except for BRAdmin Professional, all applications that use SNMPv1/v2c
will be restricted. To allow the use of SNMPv1/v2c applications, use the

SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c read-only access

or

SNMP

v1/v2c read-write access

mode.
