Table 8-4 802.11 Wireless settings (continued) Message Description No Signal: Level 0 (No radio signal detected on any channel) : No radio signal detected while the print server is scanning. Not Applicable: Signal strength is not applicable when the print server is in ad hoc mode. Access Point / BSSID Basic service set identifier (BSSID) is a 6-byte number that distinguishes one wireless LAN (WLAN) from another, even if they have the same network name (SSID). Infrastructure Mode: The MAC address or name of the access point to which the HP Jetdirect wireless print server is connected. Ad Hoc Mode: A random number or name generated by the initiator of the ad hoc network. Channel Radio frequency channel that the print server sensed and configured for communication on the network. Because it was automatically sensed from the network, this channel can be different than the user-configured channel, which is only used for broadcasts if the specified network/SSID is not found. Channel number values 1 through14 might display. The allowed channels are country/ region-dependent. Encryption Type Specifies the level of encryption configured on the HP Jetdirect print server. No Security (Open System): Positive validation of a device's identification is not required for network access unless the network requires EAP authentication. An authentication failure can indicate that an EAP authentication server has rejected network access. WEP: Each device on the network is configured with a shared secret WEP key which is required to gain access to the network. Authentication failures for the HP Jetdirect print server can arise if the installed key is faulty, or the wrong key is active, when multiple keys are configured and stored on the print server. WPA: For enhanced security, Wi-Fi protected access using a pre-shared key is configuredd. The pre-shared key is generated by the print server through a userspecified network passphrase configured on the print server. Security Settings Information in this section of the HP Jetdirect configuration page is described in the following table. Table 8-5 Security Settings Message Description 802.1X Indicates which EAP/802.1X client authentication setting was selected. EAP-TLS Use EAP-TLS. EAP-PEAP Use EAP-PEAP. Specified An 802.1X authentication protocol other than EAP-TLS/EAP-PEAP was selected. Not Specified No 802.1X authentication was selected. IPsec or Firewall If the print server and printer/MFP device supports IPsec, then IPsec appears. If IPsec is not supported, then Firewall appears. Current IPsec/Firewall status. Enabled IPsec/Firewall is enabled and operating as configured. ENWW HP Jetdirect configuration page 135
