5 IPsec Configuration HP Jetdirect 635n print servers support Internet Protocol security (IPsec) standards for network-layer security on both IPv4 and IPv6 networks. IPsec (RFC 2401) is relatively complex. But because IPsec provides security at the network layer and can be relatively independent of application layers, the opportunity for secure host-to-host communications over a widespread network, such as the Internet, is greatly enhanced. NOTE The print server also supports an SNMPv3 agent at the application layer for management application security, and open Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) standards at the transport layer for secure client-server applications (for example, client-server authentication or HTTPS Web browsing). For IPsec operation on the print server, you must configure an IPsec policy to apply to specified IP traffic. An IPsec policy page is accessed through the embedded Web server and displayed by your Web browser. A typical IPsec policy page is illustrated below.

IPsec Configuration
HP Jetdirect 635n print servers support Internet Protocol security (IPsec) standards for network-layer
security on both IPv4 and IPv6 networks. IPsec (RFC 2401) is relatively complex. But because IPsec
provides security at the network layer and can be relatively independent of application layers, the
opportunity for secure host-to-host communications over a widespread network, such as the Internet,
is greatly enhanced.
NOTE
The print server also supports an SNMPv3 agent at the application layer for
management application security, and open Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) standards at the
transport layer for secure client-server applications (for example, client-server authentication
or HTTPS Web browsing).
For IPsec operation on the print server, you must configure an IPsec policy to apply to specified IP
traffic. An IPsec policy page is accessed through the embedded Web server and displayed by your
Web browser. A typical IPsec policy page is illustrated below.
