Device Settings SNMPv3 Options You can select SNMPv3 options for secure communication with the printing system. Authentication This option provides an algorithm to check that a transferred file has arrived intact. Message Digest 5 (MD5) and Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA1) are hash algorithms used to authenticate packet data. MD5 This option provides a cryptographic hash function with a 128-bit hash value. It adds security and protection against Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP)-spoofing software. SHA1 This option produces a message digest that is 160 bits long. SHA1 is the successor to MD5. Privacy This option uses encryption for secure communication. It is available after you select the Authentication option. You may select one privacy option. (IB-23 does not support AES encrypted communication.) DES This option uses the Data Encryption Standard for encryption. DES turns cleartext into ciphertext via an encryption algorithm. It encrypts and decrypts data using 8-byte blocks and a 56-bit key. AES This option uses the Advanced Encryption Standard for encryption. AES is a symmetric block cipher that can process data blocks of 128 bits, using cipher keys with lengths of 128, 192, and 256 bits. It is more secure than DES. Selecting SNMP Settings SNMP settings in the driver must be set to match the settings in the printing system's Command Center. 1 In Device Settings > Administrator, click SNMP Settings. 2 Select SNMPv1/v2c or SNMPv3. For SNMPv1/v2c, type the Read community name and Write community name, up to 32 characters, and click OK. For SNMPv3, type a User name up to 32 characters, and a Password from 8 to 32 characters. 3 To set authentication and privacy options for SNMPv3, click Settings. 4 In the SNMPv3 dialog box, select from the available options. 5 Click OK in the SNMPv3 dialog box. 6 Optional: You can click Apply to other models and select from available models. The SNMP settings are applied to all selected models. 2-8 User Guide

SNMPv3 Options
You can select
SNMPv3

system.
Authentication
This option provides an algorithm to check that a transferred file has arrived
intact. Message Digest 5 (
MD5
) and Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (
SHA1
) are
hash algorithms used to authenticate packet data.
MD5
This option provides a cryptographic hash function with a 128–bit hash
value. It adds security and protection against Gateway Load Balancing
Protocol (GLBP)-spoofing software.
SHA1
This option produces a message digest that is 160 bits long.
SHA1
is the

Privacy
This option uses encryption for secure communication. It is available after
you select the
Authentication
option. You may select one privacy option.
(IB-23 does not support AES encrypted communication.)
