HP Embedded Web Server

The following discusses the changes to the Networking and Web Services tabs of the HP Embedded Web Server.

Networking tab

TCP/IP Settings

The Advanced tab now contains the CCC Logging item. By default, HP Customer Care Center logging (CCC Logging) is enabled. To disable logging, clear the check box.

Authorization

By default, the HP Jetdirect print server contains a self-signed preinstalled certificate. When using this self­signed certificate, the Encryption Key Length item now allows you to select an encryption key length of 2048 bits.

802.1X Authentication

Both the PEAP and EAP-TLS protocols use dynamic encryption keys for secure communication. If an authentication failure occurs, you can set the new On Authentication Failure item to connect anyway, or block access.

Device Announcement Agent

Use the Announcement Agent menu item to enable or disable the HP Device Announcement Agent, to set the configuration server, and to indicate whether to require mutual authentication using certificates. When enabled, the HP Device Announcement Agent sends an announcement to a configuration server when the device first connects to your network. The configuration server, such as the HP Imaging and Printing Security Center, then pushes the pre-established configuration settings to the device.

By default, the HP Device Announcement Agent is enabled.

Clear the check box not to require mutual authentication. (By default, mutual authentication is not required.)

HP Web Services tab

Use this new tab to enable HP Web Services and to connect to the HP ePrintCenter. HP ePrint is a free service from HP that lets you print from your mobile device to any HP ePrint-enabled device.
