HP 640n Print Server manual Wireless station settings

Table 8-3802.11 Wireless station settings

Message	Description
Status	Current state of the HP Jetdirect print server. See Table 8-2 HP Jetdirect
	Configuration/General Information on page 141 for a complete definition.
Model Number	Product number of the HP Jetdirect print server.
Hardware Address	The 12-digit hexadecimal network hardware (MAC) address of the HP Jetdirect print
	server installed in the printer or device. This address is assigned by the manufacturer.
Firmware Version	Firmware revision number of the HP Jetdirect print server currently installed in the
	printer.
Network Connection Mode	The type of network connection: Auto, Wireless, or Wired.
Communication Mode	Wireless network topology configured on the HP Jetdirect print server:
	Infrastructure: Wireless connection to an access point (gateway, bridge, base station)
	that receives and forwards network traffic between all network nodes.
	Ad Hoc: A direct wireless peer-to-peer connection to all network nodes, without
	routing through an access point.
Network Name (SSID)	Name of the network (service set identifier) to which the print server is connected.
Network Connection Type	Specifies the type of network connection: Wireless or Wired.
Access Point / BSSID	Basic service set identifier (BSSID) is a 6-byte number that distinguishes one wireless
	LAN (WLAN) from another, even if they have the same network name (SSID).
	Infrastructure Mode: The MAC address or name of the access point to which the
	HP Jetdirect wireless print server is connected.
	Ad Hoc Mode: A random number or name generated by the initiator of the ad hoc
	network.
Channel	Radio frequency channel that the print server sensed and configured for
	communication on the network. Because it was automatically sensed from the
	network, this channel can be different than the user-configured channel, which is only
	used for broadcasts if the specified network/SSID is not found.
	Channel number values 1 through14 might display. The allowed channels are country/
	region-dependent.
Authentication Type	Level of encryption configured on the HP Jetdirect print server.
	No Security (Open System): Positive validation of a device's identification is not
	required for network access unless the network requires EAP authentication. An
	authentication failure can indicate that an EAP authentication server has rejected
	network access.
	WEP: Each device on the network is configured with a shared secret WEP key which
	is required to gain access to the network. Authentication failures for the HP Jetdirect
	print server can arise if the installed key is faulty, or the wrong key is active, when
	multiple keys are configured and stored on the print server.
	WPA: For enhanced security, Wi-Fi protected access using a pre-shared key is
	configured. The pre-shared key is generated by the print server through a user-
	specified network passphrase configured on the print server.
User Name	User identity.
CA Server ID	ID of the CA server.
SSL Certificate	Indicates whether the SSL certificate is Installed or Not Installed.
