6 Configuration Overview

SSID (SERVICE SET IDENTIFIER)_________

In a wireless network, terminals can be assigned an SSID identifier which restricts their access to printers on the network to only those set up for that SSID.

For example, computers set up as Accounting can only communicate to a printer through the Marketing access point (AP) and computers set up as Marketing can only communicate to a printer through the Marketing access point:

SSID = Accounting

SSID = Marketing

CHANNELS_________________________

There are 13 channels available for use in a wireless network. However, adjacent channels share a frequency and can interfere with one another.

Therefore, to obtain maximum communication speed and accuracy, channels for access points which are near each other should be selected with 5 channels space between them: e.g., channels 1, 6 and 11.

7 Configuration Overview

SECURITY FEATURES__________________

Open (no security)

This can be used, but is not recommended.

WEP

Wired Equivalent Privacy, assuring wireless network security equivalent to a wired network.

Set the same WEP key (64 or 128 bits) for all printers, computers and access points on the wireless network.

WPA

WiFi Protected Access security, using TKIP encryption. This security uses a pre-shared key set for all printers, computers and access points in the wireless network. The key is periodically changed.

EAP (Using Certificates)

Extensible Authentication Protocol security. In wireless communications using EAP, connection to the wireless network is requested through an access point, which in turn transmits the certificate assigned to the computer and printer to an authentication server such as RADIUS.

• EAP-TLS is used for authentication.

• Client and/or CA certificates must be imported into the printer.

• Certificates must be obtained separately by the network administrator before setting the printer for EAP.

Client Certificates

• This is the printer’s own certificate.

• The client must have a private key which corr esponds to a public key contained in the certificate.

• Required file format for imported certificates = [PKCS#12].

• Suitable file extensions include *.p12 and *.pfx.

CA Certificates

• The printer is not involved in the CA certificate chain.

8 Configuration Overview

• EAP-TLS requires authentication of the Server Certificate issued by a Certificate Authority and sent from a RADIUS server.

• Certificate Authentication requires that the printer have a certificate issued by the Certificate Authority that issued the Server Certificate.

• Required file formats = [PEM] or [DER].

• Suitable CA Certificate extensions include *.pem, *.der and *.cer.

AD HOC MODE _____________________

In this mode, wireless computers communicate with the printer peer-to-peer, gaining access through an SSID you set.

Available security features for Ad Hoc Mode:

• Open (no security)

•WEP Shared Key Security

INFRASTRUCTURE MODE _______________

In Infrastructure Mode both wireless and wired computers communicate to the printer through an access point such as a hub.

Available security features for this mode include

• Open (no security)

•WEP Shared Key Security

• WPA Pre-Shared Key Security

• EAP Certification Security

TELNET MODE ______________________

This mode sets up the printer using Telnet commands. Available security features for this mode include

•Open (No Security)

•WEP Shared Key Security

• WPA Pre-Shared Key Security

• EAP Certification Security

CONTROL PANEL MODE _______________

You can also configure the wireless card through the printer’s control panel, but this mode is very limited.

10 Summary of Configuration Modes

You can set up an SSID of your choice for accessing the printer over a wireless network, but no other security can be configured through the control panel.
