Settings
This page provides a tab to run the Security Conguration Wizard, an interactive utility that will help you
congure security settings.
Please note: Do not use the Security Conguration Wizard if you congure security settings using network
management applications, such as HP Web Jetadmin.
In addition, tabs to view current settings and to restore security settings to factory-default values are also
provided.
Authorization
This page provides methods to control conguration management and use of this device.
Certicates. Request, install, and manage digital certicates on the HP Jetdirect print server. Certicates are used
to identify the Jetdirect print server both as a valid Web server for network clients, and as a valid client
requesting access on a secure network. By default, the Jetdirect print server contains a self-signed preinstalled
certicate. (When using the self-signed certicate, you can select an encryption key length of 1024 or 2048 bits.)
Access Control.(For selected print servers on IPv4 networks only) Limit host access to this device through an
Access Control List (ACL). Each entry in the list consists of an IP address, and a Mask (a Mask is usually used to
identify a network or group of host systems). Up to 10 entries can be entered. If the list is empty, any supported
system may access the device.
If you are using a Proxy Server or Network Address Translator for your HTTP connection, ensure that HTTP
connections are congured to bypass the Access Control List.
Secure Communication
This page provides settings to securely manage the network using a Web browser and the HTTPS protocol.
To authenticate the HP Jetdirect Web Server when HTTPS is used, you can congure a certicate or use the pre-
installed, self-signed X.509 Certicate. The encryption strength species which ciphers the Web server can use
for secure communications.
Active Ciphers. Select the ciphers and SSL/TLS protocols that the Web server uses for secure communications.
NOTE: SSL might lose connectivity if an invalid cipher and protocol combination is congured.
