•Security Mode: “None”, “Static WEP”, or “Enhanced” The Samsung print server provides three kinds of Security Modes (such as “None” Static WEP, and Enhanced) for easy setting of wireless network security. “None” security mode is used when the validation of wireless device's identity and data encryption are not required for your network. Static WEP uses WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) algorithm suggested by IEEE802.11 standard for security. A WEP algorithm provides data encryption and decryption for data communication. Static WEP security requires WEP key for data encryption, decryption, and authentication. Enhanced provides more security and better key management than Static WEP by using IEEE802.1X EAP authentication and dynamic encryption (such as dynamic WEP, TKIP, AES). Enhanced cannot be configured on printer's control panel. In order to choose Enhanced as security mode, you must use SWS (Syncthru Web Service). For more information about Enhanced settings, see the Network Printer User’s Guide. The default setting is “None”.
•Authentication: “Open System” or “Shared Key”. This option is available in Static WEP mode only. If required by your network, the proper authentication method must be configured on the print server. The default setting is “Open System”.
•Encryption:
•Using Key: Select the key to use in your network. This option is available in Static WEP mode only. The default setting is “Key 1”.
•Key Type: Select the key type of your network. This option is available in Static WEP mode only. The default setting is “Hexadecimal”.
•Key1, Key2, Key3, Key4: Enter the key number for
“Encryption”. This option is available in Static WEP mode only. The default setting is 0 for all keys. The numbers you can enter are as follows:
| Hexadecimal | Alphanumeric |
|
|
|
| 10 digits | 5 characters |
|
|
|
26digits | 13 characters | |
