Security Protocols

SNMP (IP and IPX)

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used by network management applications for device management. HP Jetdirect print servers support SNMP and standard MIB-II (Management Information Base) objects on both IP and IPX networks.

HP Jetdirect ew2400 print servers support an SNMP v1/v2c agent only.

Full-featured HP Jetdirect print servers (such as 620n and en3700) support an SNMP v1/v2c agent, and an SNMP v3 agent for enhanced security.

HTTPS

The following HP Jetdirect print servers support HTTPS (Secure Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) for secure, encrypted management communications between the embedded Web server and your Web browser.

●HP Jetdirect 620n internal print server (EIO)

●HP Jetdirect en3700 external print server

●HP Jetdirect ew2400 external wired/wireless print server

Authentication

EAP/802.1X Server-Based Authentication

As a network client, HP Jetdirect full-featured print servers (such as 620n, en3700) support network access using the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) on an IEEE 802.1X network. The IEEE 802.1X standard provides a port-based authentication protocol where a port can allow or block access depending on client authentication results.

When using an 802.1X connection, the print server supports Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) with an authentication server, such as a RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service, RFC 2138) server.
