Page 23 highlights

KX DRIVER Device Settings This option ensures successful Auto Configure communication using Read community name and Write community name. SNMPv3 This option ensures secure Auto Configure communication using a user name and password. Authentication and privacy options are available by selecting Settings. Apply to other models This option displays a list of installed printing systems to apply the selected SNMP settings. SNMPv3 Options You can select SNMPv3 options for secure communication with the printing system. Authentication This option provides an algorithm to check that a transferred file has arrived intact. Message Digest 5 (MD5) and Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA1) are hash algorithms used to authenticate packet data. MD5 This option provides a cryptographic hash function with a 128-bit hash value. It adds security and protection against Gateway Load Balancing Protocol (GLBP)-spoofing software. SHA1 This option produces a message digest that is 160 bits long. SHA1 is the successor to MD5. Privacy This option uses encryption for secure communication. It is available after you select the Authentication option. You may select one privacy option. DES This option uses the Data Encryption Standard for encryption. DES turns cleartext into ciphertext via an encryption algorithm. It encrypts and decrypts data using 8-byte blocks and a 56-bit key. AES This option uses the Advanced Encryption Standard for encryption. AES is a symmetric block cipher that can process data blocks of 128 bits, using cipher keys with lengths of 128, 192, and 256 bits. It is more secure than DES. Selecting SNMP Settings SNMP settings in the driver must be set to match the settings in the printing system's Command Center. 1 In Device Settings > Administrator Settings, click SNMP Settings. 2 Select SNMPv1/v2c or SNMPv3. For SNMPv1/v2c, type the Read community name and Write community name, to a maximum of 32 characters, and click OK. For SNMPv3, type a User name to a maximum of 32 characters, and a Password from 8 to 32 characters. 3 To set authentication and privacy options for SNMPv3, click Settings. 2-6
