Chapter 5 Internet Fax

Useful Terms to Remember

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

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 Direct Internet Fax Transmission on your Internet Fax, a static (reserved by a Network Administrator) IP address and configurations must be used instead of the DHCP operation, contact Authorized Panasonic dealer. (See page 96)

SMTP Authentication

Since the Internet debuted as an electronic infrastructure of global dimensions, the communications equipment market has been growing at a phenomenal rate. Yet, technologies help enhance Internet security are yet to come. There are some reasons.

1.Internet mail is a multi-hop (multi-protocol, multi-device) structure, so transmission line-based security is typically difficult to implement.

2.No exclusive technologies recommended by the Internet Fax standards are available.

3.Encryption-based authentication systems are presently available as standard solutions that drive system enhancement and integrity. Such an authentication entry has been embedded in a authentication feature, such as SASL (Simple Authentication and Security Layer).

Many Internet service providers (ISPs) support authentication methods in one form or another. The authentication options provided by this machine are as follows:

1.SMTP Authentication Extension Service (SMTP AUTH) - while sending

When users log on, they are authenticated by their user name and password, thereby preventing unauthorized users from sending or relaying faxes.

2.APOP authentication service (APOP) - while receiving

A scheme of password encryption used for receiving Email.

3.POP before SMTP

To allow prior access to a POP3 server specified before the start of transmission to grant the permission to use the SMTP server.
