Description

 

 

Enable Protocols

Enable (check) the supported protocols used for 802.1X

 

authentication on your network.

 

PEAP: (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol).

 

PEAP uses digital certificates for network server

 

authentication and passwords for client authentication.

 

PEAP requires an EAP User Name, EAP Password,

 

and CA Certificate. Dynamic encryption keys are also

 

used.

 

 

User Name

Specify an EAP/802.1X user name (up to 128 characters

 

maximum) for this device. The default user name is the

 

default host name of the print server, NPIxxxxxx, where

 

xxxxxx are the last six digits of the LAN hardware (MAC)

 

address.

 

 

Password,

Specify an EAP/802.1X password (up to 128 characters

Confirm Password

maximum) for this device. Enter the password again in the

 

Confirm Password field to ensure it was properly entered.

 

 

Server ID

Specify the Server ID validation string that identifies and

 

validates the authentication server. The Server ID string is

 

specified on the digital certificate issued by a trusted

 

Certificate Authority (CA) for the authentication server. The

 

entry may be a partial string unless the Require Exact

 

Match checkbox is enabled.

 

 

Encryption Strength

Specify the minimum encryption strength that can be used

 

during communications with the authentication server. You

 

may select Low, Medium, or High encryption strength. For

 

each encryption strength, ciphers are specified to identify

 

the weakest cipher allowed.

 

Early browsers may only support 40-bit (Low) encryption

 

levels.

 

 

CA Certificate

To validate the authentication server’s identity, a CA (or

 

“Root”) certificate must be installed on the print server. This

 

CA certificate must be issued by the Certificate Authority

 

who signed the authentication server’s certificate.

 

To configure or install a CA certificate, click Configure.
