Secure communication
57
The degree of security with which the devices and the server communicate over the network is then
determined by the security level that has been set on the MarkVision Server in conjunction with the
communication security that has been applied to the device.
Note:
Secure communication is limited to configuration commands between the host
computer and the device, not for printing.
Setting server communication security
There are two elements of server communication security: establishing a communication security
password for the server and setting the server communication security level. The server
communication security password can be set in the MarkVision Setup wizard or through the
Administrative Settings task. The server communication security level is set exclusively through the
Administrative Settings task. The default server security level is
