Using security features in the Embedded Web Server 40 On networks running Active Directory, administrators can use the LDAP+GSSAPI capabilities of the Embedded Web Server to take advantage of authentication and authorization services already deployed on the network. User credentials and group designations can be pulled from the existing network, making access to the printer as seamless as other network services. Before configuring the Embedded Web Server to integrate with Active Directory, you need to know the following: • Domain Name • User ID (for the domain) • Password (for the User ID) For more information, see "Connecting your printer to an Active Directory domain" on page 11. Create a security template 1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Security > Security Setup. 2 Under Advanced Security Setup, click Security Template. 3 Under Manage Security Templates, click Add a Security Template. 4 In the Security Template Name field, type a unique name containing up to 128 characters. It can be helpful to use a descriptive name, such as "Administrator_Only" or "Common_Functions_Template." 5 From the Authentication Setup list, select the name given to your Authentication client application or building block setup. 6 Click Add authorization, and then select the name given to your Authentication client application or building block setup. 7 To use groups, click Modify Groups, and then select one or more of the groups listed in your Active Directory Group Names list. Hold down the Ctrl key to select multiple groups. 8 Click Save Template. Assign security templates to access controls 1 From the Embedded Web Server, click Settings > Security > Security Setup. 2 Under Advanced Security Setup, click Access Controls. 3 For each function you want to protect, select the newly created security template from the drop‑down menu next to the name of that function. 4 Click Submit to save the changes, or Reset Form to cancel all changes.
