SYSTEM SETTINGS Security Settings The following settings are related to security. Touch the [Security Settings] key to configure the settings. SSL Settings SSL can be used for data transmission over a network. SSL is a protocol that enables the encryption of information communicated over a network. Encrypting data makes it possible to transmit and receive sensitive information safely. SSL can be enabled for the following protocols: Server Port • HTTPS: Apply SSL encryption to HTTP communication. • IPP-SSL: Apply SSL encryption to IPP communication. • Redirect HTTP to HTTPS in Device Web Page Access: When this setting is enabled, all communication that attempts to access the machine by HTTP is redirected to HTTPS. Client Port • HTTPS: Apply SSL encryption to HTTP communication. • FTPS: Apply SSL encryption to FTP communication. • SMTP-SSL: Apply SSL encryption to SMTP communication. • POP3-SSL: Apply SSL encryption to POP3 communication. • LDAP-SSL: Apply SSL encryption to LDAP communication. Level of Encryption The encryption strength can be set to one of three levels. IPsec Settings IPsec can be used for data transmission/reception on a network. When IPsec is used, data can be sent and received safely without the need to configure settings for IP packet encryption in a Web browser or other higher-level application. This setting is only used to enable or disable IPsec; detailed IPsec settings are configured in the Web pages. Note the following points when enabling IPsec: • A certain amount of time may be needed for the setting to be updated. During this time, it will not be possible to connect to the machine. • If the settings in the Web page are not configured correctly, it will not be possible to connect to the machine, and printing, scanning, and Web page display may not be possible. In this event, disable the setting at the machine and then correct the settings in the Web page. IEEE802.1X Setting IEEE802.1X can be used to authenticate a user to allow use of the machine. IEEE802.1X protocol defines port-based authentication for both wired and wireless networks. Use IEEE802.1X authentication to allow only authenticated devices to use network, and protect against network abuse by third parties. This setting is only used to enable or disable IEEE802.1X; detailed IEEE802.1X settings are configured in the Web pages. Some Web page settings may not allow connection to the machine, or the settings may not allow printing, scanning, or Web page display. In this case, deselect this setting and change the Web page settings. 7-93 Contents
