Introduction

Overview

The LDAP protocol allows you to search for information such as fax numbers and E-mail addresses from your
server. When you use the Fax, I-Fax or Scan to E-mail server features, you can use the LDAP search to find
fax numbers or E-mail addresses.
Every E-mail program has a personal address book, but how do you look up an address for someone who's
never sent you an E-mail? How can an organization keep one centralized up-to-date phone book that
everybody has access to? The solution is to have LDAP. LDAP, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol, is an
Internet protocol that E-mail and other programs use to look up information from a directory server on your
network. So, instead of having to write in the recipients E-mail address or have to find it from another source,
you can search for it using LDAP direct from the control panel of the multifunction machine.

Benefits to the customer

 It simplifies the process of sending a fax or scanning a document to E-mail through its effective search
facility.
 It can save time, particularly if the recipients E-mail address if unknown to the sender.

Configuration for LDAP using a Web
Browser

Changing the LDAP configuration

Note
We recommend to use Windows® Internet Explorer® 7.0/8.0 or Firefox® 3.6 for Windows® and Safari
4.0/5.0 for Macintosh. Please also make sure that JavaScript and Cookies are always enabled in
whichever browser you use. If a different web browser is used, make sure it is compatible with HTTP 1.0
and HTTP 1.1.

a
b

Start your web browser.
Type “http://machine’s IP address/” into your browser's address bar (where “machine’s IP address” is the
IP address of the machine or the print server name).
 For example: http://192.168.1.2/

No password is required by default. If you have previously set a password, enter it and press

Click Network.
Click Protocol.
Check LDAP and then click Submit.
Restart the machine to activate the configuration.

Configuration for LDAP using a Web Browser

Make sure the machine is turned on and then choose Advanced Setting on the Protocol page. You
can configure and change the following LDAP settings using a web browser.

3

1 This is the location of your LDAP server.
2 Change the port if necessary. (389 is the typical port number of LDAP).
If you want to connect to the Global Catalog, enter the port number 3268.
3 Enter Search Root. This is the place to start a search. For example; if the domain name of the Active
Directory server is set to “local.example.com”, the Search Root could be such as “cn=Users, dc=local,
dc=example, dc=com”.
If your server supports LDAPv3, you can automatically obtain the Search Root by pressing
Fetch DNs.
4 Select Simple method in the Authentication section, and specify Username 1 and Password 1. In
the case of connecting to the Active Directory server, enter the DN (Distinguished Name) format. (e.g.
“cn=username, cn=Users, dc=local, dc=example, dc=com ”)
5 This is how many seconds the machine will wait for a response from the LDAP server.
6 Enter the attribute type for name, E-mail address and fax number as used on the LDAP server.

This selection will only be available depending on the authentication method used.

Configuration for LDAP using a Web Browser

After you have configured the LDAP settings, click Submit. Make sure that the Status is OK on the Test
Result page.

Note
• The LDAP function of this machine supports LDAPv3.

• You need to use Kerberos Authentication or Simple Authentication to communicate with your LDAP
server.
If the LDAP server supports Kerberos Authentication, we recommend to choose Kerberos for the
Authentication setting. It provides strong authentication between the LDAP server and your machine.
You must configure the protocol (network time server), or you must set the date, time and time zone
correctly on the control panel for Kerberos Authentication. The time must match the time on the server
used for the Kerberos Authentication. (For information about setting, see Synchronize with SNTP server
uu page 8.)
• SSL/TLS is not supported.
• For the details of each item, see the Help Text in the Web Based Management.

After a short while you will be asked if you want to send a test E-mail to ensure a connection has been
established with your E-mail server.
Do one of the following:
If you want to test the connectivity, enter an E-mail address and click Submit. Go to step j.
If you want to send a test E-mail, click Send Test E-mail.
If you do not want to test the connectivity, uncheck both test E-mail check boxes and then click Submit.

After a few moments the following screen appears if the connections to the E-mail server were
successful. Click OK.
If they were not successful, go back and check your settings.

Configuration for LDAP using a Web Browser

Synchronize with SNTP server

If the LDAP server supports Kerberos Authentication, and if you choose Kerberos for the Authentication, you
must configure the SNTP protocol (network time server), or you must set the date, time and time zone
correctly on the control panel for Kerberos Authentication. The time must match the time on the server used
for the Kerberos Authentication.
SNTP is the protocol used to synchronize the time used by the machine for Authentication with the SNTP
time server (this time is not the time displayed on the LCD of the machine). You can synchronize the time
used by the machine on a regular basis with the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) provided by the time
server.

Supported Certificates

The Brother machine supports the following certificates.
 Self-signed certificate
This print server issues its own certificate. Using this certificate, you can easily use the SSL/TLS
communication without having a certificate from a CA. (See Creating a self-signed certificate uu page 20.)
 Certificate from a CA
There are two methods for installing a certificate from a CA. If you already have a CA or if you want to use
a certificate from an external trusted CA:
• When using a CSR (Certificate Signing Request) from this print server. (See Creating a Certificate
Signing Request (CSR) uu page 21.)
• When importing a certificate and a private key. (See Import and export the certificate and private key
uu page 24.)
 CA certificate
If you use a CA certificate that identifies the CA (Certificate Authority) itself and owns its private key, you
must import a CA certificate from the CA, prior to the configuration. (See Import and export a CA certificate
uu page 25.)
