The Embedded Web Server handles authentication and authorization using one or more of the following, also referred

to as building blocks:

• PIN or Panel PIN Protect

• Password or Web Page Password Protect

• Internal accounts

• LDAP

• LDAP+GSSAPI

• Kerberos 5 (used only in conjunction with LDAP+GSSAPI)

• Active Directory

To provide low-level security, you can use either PIN and Password, or Panel PIN Protect and Web Page Password

Protect for some printer models, by simply limiting access to a printer—or specific functions of a printer—to anyone

who knows the correct code. This type of security might be appropriate if a printer is located in the lobby or other

public area of a business, so that only employees who know the password or PIN are able to use the printer. Because

anyone who enters the correct password or PIN receives the same privileges and users cannot be individually identified,

passwords and PINs are considered less secure than other building blocks that require a user to be identified, or both

identified and authorized.

Note: The default settings do not contain any authentication or authorization building blocks, which means that

everyone has unrestricted access to the Embedded Web Server.
