DisablingHTTPCommunication 1469-084 HTTP is used for communications over the network, such as when you access the machine via the Remote UI. If you are using a USB connection or are otherwise not using HTTP, you can disable HTTP to block malicious third-partyintrusions via the unused HTTP port. Disabling HTTP disables some of the network capabilities, such as the Remote UI, WSD printing, and printingwith Google Cloud Print. 1TapintheScreen.2Tap.

DisablingRemoteUI 1469-085 The Remote UI is useful because the machine settings can be speci4ed by using a Web browser on a computer. To use the Remote UI, the machine must be connected to a computer over the network. If you do not need to use the Remote UI, you might want to disable the Remote UI to reduce the risk of having your machine controlled remotely over the network by malicious third parties. 1TapintheScreen.2Tap.

ImplementingRobustSecurityFeatures 1469-086 Authorized users may incur unanticipated losses from attacks by malicious third parties, such as sniwng, spoo4ng, and tampering of data as it 5ows over a network. To protect your important and valuable information from these attacks, the machine supports the following features to enhance security and secrecy. TLSEncryptedCommunication TLS is a protocol for encryption for data sent over a network and is often used for communication via a Web browser or an e-mail application. TLS enables secure network communication when you access the machine from a computer via the Remote UI. EnablingTLSEncryptedCommunicationfortheRemoteUI(P.426) IEEE802.1XAuthentication IEEE 802.1X is a standard and mechanism for blocking unauthorized access to the network by collectively managing user authentication information. If a device tries to connect to the 802.1X network, the device mustgo through user authentication in order to prove that the connection is made by an authorized user. Authentication information is sent to and checked by a RADIUS server, which permits or rejects communication to the network depending on the authentication result. If authentication fails, a LAN switch (or an access point) blocks access from the outside of the network. The machine can connect to an 802.1X network as a client device.

EnablingTLSEncryptedCommunicationfortheRemote UI 1469-087 You can encrypt communication between the machine and a Web browser on the computer by using Transport Layer Security (TLS). TLS is a mechanism for encrypting data sent or received over the network. TLS must be enabled when the Remote UI is used for specifying settings for IEEE 802.1X authentication (TTLS/PEAP) or SNMPv3. To use TLS for the Remote UI, you need to set a key pair and enable the TLS function. Generate or install the key pair for TLS before enabling TLS ( Con4gurLng SettingsforKeyPairsandDigital CertL4cates(P.434)). 1StarttheRemoteUIandlogoninSystemManagerMode.StartingRemote UI(P.450)2Click[Settings/[email protected][NetworkSettings@[TCP/IP[email protected] 426

Con4gurLngIEEE802.1XAuthentication 1469-088 The machine can connect to an 802.1X network as a client device. A typical 802.1X network consists of a RADIUS server (authentication server), LAN switch (authenticator), and client devices with authentication software (supplicants). If adevice tries to connect to the 802.1X network, the device must go through user authentication in order to prove that the connection is made by an authorized user. Authentication information is sent to and checked by a RADIUS server, which permits or rejects communication to the network depending on the authentication result. If authentication fails, a LAN switch (or an access point) blocks access from the outside of the network. Select the authentication method from the options below. If necessary, install or register a key pair or CA certi4cate before con4guring IEEE 802.1X authentication ( UsingCA-issuedKeyPairsandDigital CertL4cates(P.443)). TLS The machine and the authentication server authenticate each other by mutually verifying their certi4cates. A key pair issued by a certi4cation authority (CA) is required for the client authentication (when authenticating the machine). For the server authentication, a CA certi4cate installed via the Remote UI can be used in addition to a CA certi4cate preinstalled in the machine. TTLS This authentication method uses a user name and password for the client authentication and a CA certi4cate for the server authentication. MSCHAPv2 or PAP can be selected as the internal protocol. TTLS can be used with PEAP at the same time. Enable TLS for the Remote UI before con4guring this authentication method ( EnablingTLSEncryptedCommunicationfortheRemoteUI(P.426) ). PEAP The required settings are almost the same as those of TTLS. MS-CHAPv2 is used as the internal protocol.
