Table 5-1 Summary of HP Jetdirect Security Features (continued) ■ By factory default, host systems that use HTTP (for example, using the embedded Web server) are not checked against entries in the Access List and are allowed access. However, HTTP host access can be disabled through the embedded Web server. ■ If the list is empty, then all hosts are allowed access. ■ Configured on the HP Jetdirect print server using TFTP (TCP/IP Configuration), Telnet (TCP/IP Configuration), embedded Web server (Using the Embedded Web Server), or management software. Telnet Control ■ Telnet may be disabled using TFTP (TCP/IP Configuration), the embedded Web server (see Using the Embedded Web Server) and management software. Telnet access is not secure. SNMP v1/v2c Set Community Name ■ A password on the HP Jetdirect print server that allows incoming SNMP Set commands (for example, from management software) to write (or set) HP Jetdirect configuration parameters. ■ For a user-assigned Set Community Name, SNMP Set commands must contain this name, which is authenticated by the print server before the command is performed. ■ On IP networks, authentication of SNMP Set commands may be further restricted to systems identified on the access control list. ■ Configured on the HP Jetdirect print server using TFTP (TCP/IP Configuration), Telnet (TCP/IP Configuration), embedded Web server (Using the Embedded Web Server), or Management application services. ■ SNMP v1/v2c uses plain text and can be disabled. HP Web Jetadmin Password and Profiles ■ Access control to Jetdirect configuration parameters through the Jetdirect IP Administrator password, which may be configured from HP Web Jetadmin, Telnet, or embedded Web server. For instructions, refer to the HP Web Jetadmin online help. ■ HP Web Jetadmin provides access control through User Profiles. User Profiles allow password protection for individual profiles and controlled access to HP Jetdirect and printer features. For more information, refer to the HP Web Jetadmin online help. Printer Control Panel Lock ■ Selected HP printers provide a control panel lock that prevents access to HP Jetdirect embedded print server configuration parameters. In many cases, this lock may be set remotely by management applications (such as HP Web Jetadmin). To determine whether your printer supports a control panel lock, refer to your printer documentation. Using Security Features Access to HP Jetdirect configuration parameters can be controlled through combined use of the available security features. Table 5-2 Settings for Access Control provides examples of various settings and the associated level of access control. 62 Chapter 5 Security Features ENWW

By factory default, host systems that use HTTP (for example, using the embedded Web server) are not checked against
entries in the Access List and are allowed access. However, HTTP host access can be disabled through the embedded
Web server.
If the list is empty, then all hosts are allowed access.
Configured on the HP Jetdirect print server using TFTP (
TCP/IP
Configuration
), Telnet (
TCP/IP
Configuration
),
embedded Web server (
Using
the
Embedded
Web
Server
), or management software.
Telnet Control
Telnet may be disabled using TFTP (
TCP/IP
Configuration
), the embedded Web server (see
Using
the
Embedded
Web
Server
) and management software. Telnet access is not secure.
SNMP v1/v2c Set Community Name
A password on the HP Jetdirect print server that allows incoming SNMP Set commands (for example, from
management software) to write (or
set
) HP Jetdirect configuration parameters.
For a user-assigned Set Community Name, SNMP Set commands must contain this name, which is authenticated by
the print server before the command is performed.
On IP networks, authentication of SNMP Set commands may be further restricted to systems identified on the access
control list.
Configured on the HP Jetdirect print server using TFTP (
TCP/IP
Configuration
), Telnet (
TCP/IP
Configuration
),
embedded Web server (
Using
the
Embedded
Web
Server
), or Management application services.
SNMP v1/v2c uses plain text and can be disabled.
HP Web Jetadmin Password and Profiles
Access control to Jetdirect configuration parameters through the Jetdirect IP Administrator password, which may be
configured from HP Web Jetadmin, Telnet, or embedded Web server. For instructions, refer to the HP Web Jetadmin
online help.
HP Web Jetadmin provides access control through User Profiles. User Profiles allow password protection for individual
profiles and controlled access to HP Jetdirect and printer features. For more information, refer to the HP Web Jetadmin
online help.
Printer Control Panel Lock
Selected HP printers provide a control panel lock that prevents access to HP Jetdirect embedded print server
configuration parameters. In many cases, this lock may be set remotely by management applications (such as HP Web
Jetadmin). To determine whether your printer supports a control panel lock, refer to your printer documentation.
Using Security Features
Access to HP Jetdirect configuration parameters can be controlled through combined use of the
available security features.
