Tips for Administrator 51

Some printers may not support secure communications using IPsec/Access Control. For

information on whether your printer supports these features, see the printer manual. This

document provides sample IPsec/Access Control configurations and information on setup

and troubleshooting.

Overview and Sample Settings

IPsec and Access Control are configured differently and use different connection types.

Review the sample settings and choose a configuration suited to your objectives.

Sample 1

The product accepts from the client only data secured using IPsec. Normal data (i.e. data

not secured using IPsec) are not accepted.

Sample 2

The product accepts print data from specific clients only. Data from other clients and

non-print data from the specified clients are not accepted.

Sample 3

The product accepts only specific types of data from specific clients. In this example,

security levels are set separately for each client type so that the product accepts all data

from administrator clients (including product management and print data) but only print

data from print clients and no data at all from other clients.

Product Security Policies: An Overview

O You can create one Default Policy and Group Policy 1-10.

O If there is more than one policy, the product will check the policies in order from the top

of the display (“Group Policy 1”) and initiate a network connection when it finds a

matching policy.

O Because the product checks the policies in order from the top, more restrictive policies

should precede the more general policies on which they are based.
