SSL Server (SSL Server setting)
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) refers to a protocol used to encrypt
information sent and received over a network. SSL can currently be used
to encrypt data such as the WWW or FTP files widely used on the Internet
so that privacy-related information, credit card numbers, corporate
secrets and other confidential information can be sent and received
safely.
SSL servers use this protocol to authenticate servers and clients.
The default setting is Off.
1 After entering the administrator ID and password, press or
repeatedly until >SSL Server > appears.
2 Press [OK]. A blinking question mark (?) appears.
3 Select On or Off using or .
4 Press [OK].
5 Press [MENU]. The display returns to Ready.
DES (SSL Server DES setting)
DES (Data Encryption Standard) is a typical symmetric-key cryptographic
algorithm that divides data in to 64-bit blocks and then encrypts each
block using a 56-bit key.
The default setting is Off.
1 Press while >SSL Server On > is displayed. >>DES appears.
2 Press [OK]. A blinking question mark (?) appears.
3 Select On or Off using or .
4 Press [OK].
5 Press [MENU]. The display returns to Ready.
3DES (SSL Server 3DES setting)
3DES (Triple Data Encryption Standard) is a high level of encryption in
which DES encryption is repeated threefold.
The default setting is On.
1 Press while >SSL Server On > is displayed. >>3DES appears.
Note Check with your network administrator when selecting
network settings.
Note Symmetric-key cryptography, because it uses the same
key for both encryption and decryption, uses the same key in both
directions when encrypted data is exchanged. Accordingly, to
prevent the key from being divulged, key transfer and storage
must be very strictly managed.
