PAC- Key A-ID Info The Protected Access Credential (PAC) setting
is used to specify the PAC file used by EAP-FAST
authentication. This setting is automatically filled up
by the printer if ACQUIRE_PAC is enabled and current
installed PAC file fails authenticating the printer to the
network. You can manually import a PAC file using a
pass phrase the same way you install a certificate.
Automatic
Provision (PAC)
Set Automatic PAC file Provisioning to on or off.
Root Certificate The common name of the installed root CA certificate.
You can also specify a different certificate (provided
that it has already been installed on the printer) by
entering the path to the new certificate in this field. If a
pass phrase is required, add it to the end of the path in
the form of “@passphrase”.
Server Common
Name #1
Server Common
Name #2
(TTLS and PEAP
only)
Specify common names. If you specify one common
name, the server certificate common name must match
this name for authentication. If you specify two
common names, the server certificate common name
must match at least one of them. The default is “” (any
common name).
