● AUTHENTICATION IN PROGRESS: Link-level

authentication is in progress. In Infrastructure mode,

server-based authentication may also be in progress.

● AUTHENTICATION FAILED. The Jetdirect print server

could not access the network because of an

authentication error. The error depends on the

authentication method used. Verify the authentication

method using the “Authentication Type” field.

● ENCRYPTION REQUIRED: Encryption is required on

this network, but encryption has not been enabled on the

Jetdirect print server. Verify encryption configuration.

Communication Mode Specifies the wireless network topology configured on the

Jetdirect print server:

Infrastructure: Wireless connection to an Access Point

(gateway, bridge, Base Station) that receives and forwards

network traffic between all network nodes.

Ad Hoc: A direct wireless peer-to-peer connection to all

network nodes, without routing through an Access Point.

Network Name (SSID) Identifies the name of the network (Service Set Identifier) to

which the print server has connected.

Signal Strength (1-5) The strength of the radio signal received by the print server.

The following items may be displayed:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5: Indicates the signal strength. Level 1(Poor),

Levels 2 and 3 (Marginal), Level 4 (Good), Level 5

(Excellent)

No Signal: No radio signal detected on any channel.

<blank>: 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 Jetdirect wireless print server is

connected.

Ad Hoc Mode: A random number or name generated by the

initiator of the Ad Hoc network.
