Security: Settings
In the SECURITY section, the Settings menu provides access to the following tabs: Status (default),
Wizard, Restore Defaults. The available settings depend on your particular print server model.
Status
The Status page displays the current security configuration settings of the print server. The settings
that will be displayed depend on the features supported by the print server.
Wizard
NOTE If you use HP Web Jetadmin to manage your devices, you should not use this wizard.
Instead, use HP Web Jetadmin to configure your network security settings to ensure they are
properly set for your network.
The Wizard page allows you to run the HP Jetdirect Security Configuration Wizard. This wizard
will guide you through the print server's security configuration needed for your network. Click Start
Wizard to run the wizard. This opens the Security Level page.
The optional configuration parameters presented by the wizard will depend on your choice of security
level. For an overview, see
Table 4-6 Wizard Security Levels.
NOTE If you improperly exit the wizard (for example, by failing to use the Cancel button), an
Operation Failed screen may appear. If so, wait approximately two minutes before running
the wizard again.

Security Level Description
Basic Security This option requires that you configure an administrator password for configuration
management. The administrator password is shared with other management tools, such
as Telnet and SNMP applications. However, some management tools, such as Telnet,
use plain-text communications and are not secure.
The Administrator Account page is used to enter the administrator password. The
Administrator Password will also be used as the SNMP v1/v2 Set Community Name for
SNMP management applications.
The Configuration Review page displays all the current settings that may affect
security. Click Finish to set your basic security selections.
Custom Security This option proceeds through all available security settings supported by the print
server. For more information on specific parameters and selections, see the tabs on the
Mgmt. Protocols and Authorization menu pages under SECURITY.
The Administrator Account page is used to enter the administrator password.
The Management Tools page allows configuration of supported management protocols
that are not secure (such as Telnet).
SNMP Configuration pages are used to configure custom SNMP settings:
■ Enable SNMPv1/v2: Enable this option to allow management software that use
SNMP v1/v2. If selected the SNMPv1/v2 Configuration page is displayed to
configure SNMP community names.
