Configure firewall settings

Firewall features provide network-layer security on both IPv4 and IPv6 networks. The firewall provides simple control of IP addresses that are allowed access.

NOTE: In addition to firewall protection at the network layer, the printer also supports open secure sockets layer (SSL) standards at the transport layer for secure client-server applications, such as client- server authentication or HTTPS Web browsing.

For firewall operation on the printer, you must configure a firewall policy to apply to specified IP traffic. Firewall policy pages are accessed through the Embedded Web Server and displayed by your Web browser. After a policy is configured, it is not activated until you click Apply in the Embedded Web Server.
