184 Using the Embedded Web Server EN
Admin Password
For controlled access to configuration and status information
through the embedded web server and Telnet, use this page to
set an Administrative password. If a password is set, you will
be prompted for a user name and this password to access the
HP Jetdirect web pages.
Access Control
This page allows you to create a host access list on the HP Jetdirect
print server. A host access list specifies individual host systems, or
networks of host systems, that will be allowed to access the print
server and the attached network device. Up to 10 entries can be
included on the host access list. If the list is empty (no hosts are
listed), any supported system can access the print server.
CAUTION Use caution when using this feature. You may lose
your ability to communicate with the HP Jetdirect
print server if your system is improperly specified
in the list.
For use of the host access list as a security feature,
see Chapter 6
.
Host systems are specified by their IP addresses or network
number. If the network contains subnets, a “mask” may be used to
identify whether the IP address designates an individual host
system or a group of host systems.
Examples. See the table of sample entries below:,
IP Address Mask Description
192.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 Allow all hosts with network number 192.
192.1.0.0 255.1.0.0 Allow all hosts on network 192, subnet 1.
192.168.1.2 Allow the host with IP address 192.168.1.2.
The Mask 255.255.255.255 is assumed and is
not required.
