HP Web Jetadmin - Security and HP Web Jetadmin

18
Once the plug-in is installed, extra
device configuration items appear
within the Network configuration
category (see Figure 15). These
configuration items can apply and
manage IPsec policies to the HP
Jetdirect device. Through an IPsec
policy, IP traffic can be processed or
discarded, and processed traffic can be
protected by IPsec authentication and
encryption protocols. For more details,
see the help documentation for IPsec
configuration after the plug-in is
installed.
For more information about IPsec and
other device security, see
www.hp.com/go/secureprinting.
Disable unused protocols and services
Many paths exist for providing both configuration and print access to devices. Unused items can be
disabled on single or multiple devices by using Enable Features.
Control panel lock
Many HP devices have a security feature that locks the control panel to varying degrees. Control
panel lock settings may vary by device model. Device documentation should be used to determine the
best settings for a given environment.
Other device security features
Security features can depend on device feature set, but the following items are configurable from
within HP Web Jetadmin. Consult device documentation when working with any of these items:
• Color Access Control—Color functionality on devices can be restricted on a by user, group, or
application basis.
• MFP access—A large number of feature and authentication settings exist to ensure authorization to
features such as scan-to-email and scan-to-fax.
• Jetdirect access control list—Provides a way to lock out IP address connections.
• Encryption—Some network communication with devices can be encrypted by using one or both of
SNMPv3 or device based SSL.
• Disable direct ports—Provides a way to lock the physical, hardware ports on a device.
• Disable RFU firmware upgrade—Prevents unauthorized firmware images from being implemented
on devices.
