Internet Communication Features116Your machine is capable of transferring all received Internet email or regular G3 fax documents to a pre-programmed G3 fax or a PC destination.DHCP is a protocol for dynamically assigning IP addresses to Internet Fax and client PCs. With DHCP, anInternet Fax can automatically acquire a unique IP address each time it connects to a network making IPaddress management an easier task for network administrators. When an Internet Fax logs on to thenetwork, 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 NetworkAdministrator) IP address and configurations must be used instead of the DHCP operation.SMTP ReceivingG3 GatewayDirect SMTP (Direct Internet Fax XMT)The Internet's emergence as a worldwide digital infrastructure has dramatically encouraged a market forcommunications-oriented appliances. However, the no object security technique has gained widespreadand 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 isgenerally difficult.2. No single technique is recommended by the Internet Fax standard.To improve and robust the system, Authentication through encryption based techniques are provided as atypical solution. The techniques may be associated with the transmission channel, such as by using SimpleAuthentication and Security layer (SASL).Some Internet Service Providers (ISP) take advantage of Internet mail service by providing anAuthentication feature.Your Internet Fax provides the following three Authentication options.1. SMTP Service Extension for Authentication (SMTP AUTH) -- while sending2. Lightweight challenge-response mechanism POP (APOP) -- while receiving3.
