Authorization

The Authorization page provides tabs that allow you to control access to the device, as well as to device configuration and management features. In addition, you may configure certificates for client and server authentication.

Admin. Account

Use this page to set an administrator password for controlled access to Jetdirect configuration and status information. The administrator password is shared by Jetdirect configuration tools, such as the embedded Web server, Telnet, and HP Web Jetadmin. In addition, for applicable printers, the password is shared with the printer (see Printer Password Synchronization below).

If a password is set and you attempt to access Jetdirect print server settings, you will be prompted for a user name and this password before you are allowed access.

Note

The administrator password may be cleared by a

 

cold reset of the print server, which resets the print

 

server to factory default settings.

 

 

A checkbox allows you to synchronize HP Web Jetadmin and the SNMP v1/v2c Set Community Name.If you enable this feature (the checkbox is checked), the administrator password will also be used as the SNMP Set Community Name for SNMP v1/v2c management applications.

Note

If you subsequently change the SNMP Set

 

Community Name (for example, using the SNMP

 

tab on the Network Settings page or from Web

 

Jetadmin), the two settings will no longer be

 

synchronized.
