Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
DHCP is a protocol for dynamically assigning IP addresses to Internet Fax and client PCs. With DHCP, an Internet Fax
can automatically acquire a unique IP address each time it connects to a network making IP address management an
easier task for network administrators. When an Internet Fax logs on to the network, the DHCP server selects an IP
address from a master list and assigns it to the system.
If you wish to enable the following options on your Internet Fax, a static (reserved by a Network Administrator) IP
address and configurations must be used instead of the DHCP operation.

SMTP Authentication
The Internet's emergence as a worldwide digital infrastructure has dramatically encouraged a market for
communications-oriented appliances. However, the no object security technique has gained widespread and dominant
use over the Internet due to several reasons.
1. Internet mail is a multi-hop store and forward architecture, and use of channel-based security is generally difficult.
2. No single technique is recommended by the Internet Fax standard.
To improve and make the system robust, Authentication through encryption based techniques are provided as a typical
solution. The techniques may be associated with the transmission channel, such as by using Simple Authentication
and Security Layer (SASL).
Some Internet Service Providers (ISP) take advantage of Internet mail service by providing an Authentication feature.
Your Internet Fax provides the following three Authentication options.
1. SMTP Service Extension for Authentication (SMTP AUTH) -- while sending
2. Lightweight challenge-response mechanism POP (APOP) -- while receiving
3. POP before SMTP -- performs POP procedure prior to every SMTP transaction
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
For convenience, your Internet Fax has an LDAP Client feature to enable the search for recipient's email addresses
from the LDAP Server, which assists the entering of long email addresses.
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a protocol for accessing online directory services. An LDAP
Client connects to an LDAP Server and asks a question. The server responds with an answer.
Your Internet Fax indicates the search result from the LDAP Server on the LCD display. This enables you to easily
choose the recipients you wish to send to and saves you time from entering long and intricate email addresses.
