Security Level

Description

 

 

Basic Security

This option requires that you configure an administrator

 

 

password for configuration management. The administrator

 

 

password is shared with other management tools, such as

 

 

Telnet and SNMP applications. However, some

 

 

management tools, such as Telnet, use plain-text

 

 

communications and are not secure.

 

 

The Administrator Account page is used to enter the

 

 

administrator password. The Administrator Password will

 

 

also be used as the SNMP v1/v2 Set Community Name for

 

 

SNMP management applications.

 

 

The Configuration Review page displays all the current

 

 

settings that may affect security. Click Finish to set your

 

 

basic security selections.

 

 

Enhanced Security

This option adds to Basic Security by automatically

(Recommended)

disabling management protocols that are do not use secure,

 

 

encrypted communications (such as Telnet and FTP

 

 

firmware updates, RCFG, SNMP v1/v2c). To change

 

 

individual protocol settings, see Mgmt. Protocols.

 

 

The Administrator Account page is used to enter the

 

 

administrator password.

 

 

SNMP Configuration pages are used to configure specific

 

 

SNMP settings:

 

 

Enable SNMPv3: (Full-featured print servers only)

 

 

Enable SNMP v3 and create an SNMP v3 account.

 

 

Creating an SNMP v3 account is not recommended if

 

 

you manage devices using HP Web Jetadmin. See

 

 

SNMP.

 

 

Enable SNMPv1/v2 read-only access: Enable this

 

 

option to allow support of current tools that rely on SNMP

 

 

v1/v2 for device discovery and status.

 

 

The Configuration Review page displays all the current

 

 

settings that may affect security. Click Finish to set your

 

 

basic security selections.
