Transmission Using IPsec
This can be specified by the network administrator.
For communication security, this printer supports IPsec. IPsec transmits secure data packets at the IP protocol
level using the shared key encryption method, where both the sender and receiver retain the same key.
This printer has two methods that you can use to specify the shared encryption key for both parties:
encryption key auto exchange and encryption key manual settings. Using the auto exchange setting, you
can renew the shared key exchange settings within a specified validity period, and achieve higher
transmission security.
• When “Inactive” is specified for “Exclude HTTPS Communication”, access to Web Image Monitor
can be lost if the key settings are improperly configured. In order to prevent this, you can specify IPsec
to exclude HTTPS communication by selecting “Active”. When you want to include HTTPS
transmission, we recommend that you select “Inactive” for “Exclude HTTPS Communication” after
confirming that IPsec is properly configured. When “Active” is selected for “Exclude HTTPS
Communication”, even though HTTPS transmission is not targeted by IPsec, Web Image Monitor might
become unusable when TCP is targeted by IPsec from the computer side. If you cannot access Web
Image Monitor due to IPsec configuration problems, disable IPsec on the control panel, and then
access Web Image Monitor. For details about disabling IPsec using the control panel, see p.126 "
Deactivating IPsec Using the Control Panel".
• IPsec is not applied to data obtained through DHCP, DNS, or WINS.
• IPsec compatible operating systems are Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista/7, Windows Server
2003/2003 R2,2008/2008 R2, Mac OS X 10.4 and later, Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS 4.0, and
Solaris 10. However, some setting items are not supported depending on the operating system. Make
sure the IPsec settings you specify are consistent with the operating system's IPsec settings.
Encryption and Authentication by IPsec
IPsec consists of two main functions: the encryption function, which ensures the confidentiality of data, and
the authentication function, which verifies the sender of the data and the data's integrity. This printer's IPsec
function supports two security protocols: the ESP protocol, which enables both of the IPsec functions at the
same time, and the AH protocol, which enables only the authentication function.
ESP Protocol
The ESP protocol provides secure transmission through both encryption and authentication. This
protocol does not provide header authentication.
• For successful encryption, both the sender and receiver must specify the same encryption
algorithm and encryption key. If you use the encryption key auto exchange method, the
encryption algorithm and encryption key are specified automatically.
