Con4gurLngSettingsforKeyPairsandDigital CertL4cates 1469-089 In order to encrypt communication with a remote device, an encryption key must be sent and received over an unsecured network beforehand. This problem is solved by public-key cryptography. Public-key cryptography ensuressecure communication by protecting important and valuable information from attacks, such as sniwng, spoo4ng, and tampering of data as it 5ows over a network. KeyPair A key pair consists of a public key and a secret key, both of which are required for encrypting or decrypting data. Because data that has been encrypted with one of the key pair cannot be returned to its original data form without the other, public-key cryptography ensures secure communication of data over the network. A key pair is used for TLS encrypted communication or TLS of the IEEE 802.1X authentication. Up to 4ve key pairs (including the preinstalled pairs) can be generated to the machine ( UsingCA-issuedKeyPairsandDigital CertL4cates (P.443)). A key pair can be generated with the machine ( GeneratingKey Pairs(P.436) ). CACertL4cate Digital certi4cates including CA certi4cates are similar to other forms of identi4cation, such as driver's licenses. A digital certi4cate contains a digital signature, which enables the machine to detect any spoo4ng or tampering of data. It is extremely diwcult for third parties to abuse digital certi4cates. A digital certi4cate that contains a public key of a certi4cation authority (CA) is referred to as a CA certi4cate. CA certi4cates are used for verifying the device the machine is communicating with for features such as printing with Google Cloud Print or IEEE 802.1X authentication. Up to 67 CA certi4cates can be registered, including the 62 certi4cates that are preinstalled in the machine ( UsingCA-issuedKeyPairsandDigital CertL4cates(P.443)). CKey and Certi4cate Requirements The certi4cate contained in a key pair generated with the machine conforms to X.509v3. If you install a key pair or a CA certi4cate from a computer, make sure that they meet the following requirements: Format Key pair: PKCS#12 *1 CA certi4cate X.509v1 or X.509v3, DER (encoded binary), PEMFile extension Key pair: ".p12" or ".pfx" CA certi4cate ".cer"Public key algorithm (and key length)RSA (512 bits, 1024 bits, 2048 bits, or 4096 bits)Certi4cate signature algorithmSHA1-RSA, SHA256-RSA, SHA384-RSA *2 , SHA512-RSA *2 , MD5-RSA, or MD2-RSACerti4cate thumbprint algorithmSHA1*1 Requirements for the certi4cate contained in a key pair are pursuant to CA certi4cates. *2 SHA384-RSA and SHA512-RSA are available only when the RSA key length is 1024 bits or more.

The machine does not support use of a certi4cate revocation list (CRL). Security 435
GeneratingKeyPairs 1469-08A A key pair can be generated with the machine when it is required for encrypted communication via Transport Layer Security (TLS). You can use TLS when accessing the machine via the Remote UI. Up to 4ve key pairs (including the preinstalled pairs) can be generated to the machine. Self-signed certi4cates are used with key pairs generated in "Network Communication". With a "Key and Certi4cate Signing Request (CSR)", you can apply for a CA-issued digital certi4cate for the key pair generated by the machine.
