Table 4-2 Networking Menu Items (continued) ● 802.1X Authentication on page 93 ● IPsec/Firewall on page 94 DIAGNOSTICS section ● Network Statistics on page 95 ● Protocol Info on page 95 ● Configuration Page on page 95 Wireless NOTE: You can use HP Jetdirect wired/wireless print servers in a wired or wireless networking environment. To specify the connection type, see Misc. Settings on page 79 . Use the Wireless pages to create or change your wireless network configuration parameters for your IEEE 802.11 wireless Ethernet connection. The configuration parameters are summarized in Table 4-3 Wireless configuration parameters on page 67. The Wireless page displays all wireless configuration parameters required to make a wireless connection to your network. Click Apply to set, or Cancel to ignore, your configuration entries. To reset to factory-default values, click Restore Defaults. Alternatively, you can click the Wireless Wizard button in the General section of the Wireless page to configure your wireless network connection. This launches a configuration wizard that guides you through the required 802.11 wireless configuration parameters and, depending on your choices, bypasses unnecessary parameters. NOTE: If you improperly exit the wizard, for example by failing to use the Cancel button, an Operation Failed screen might appear. If so, wait approximately two minutes before restarting the wizard. An HP Jetdirect wireless print server with factory-default settings (ad hoc mode) is easily accessible by unauthorized clients. Therefore, do not turn on a print server with factory default settings any longer than necessary. Ensure that you verify any configuration settings. Table 4-3 Wireless configuration parameters Item Description Network Name (SSID) Select a network name that the HP Jetdirect print server connects to from the Existing wireless network list, or, provide a network name in the Enter a Network Name field. The network name is also called the service set identifier (SSID) and identifies the extended service set (ESS) that is normally associated with larger infrastructure mode networks. The print server lists the detected SSIDs. An empty (or blank) SSID field is accepted, for example, on networks that rely on signal strength, encryption and authentication methods to control network access. The factory-default SSID configured on the HP Jetdirect print server is "hpsetup". To initially communicate with the print server, your wireless computer's SSID must also be "hpsetup". Refresh NOTE: The SSID characters are case sensitive. Ensure you use the appropriate lowercase or uppercase characters. Click this button to refresh the list of network names detected by the print server. ENWW Networking tab 67
