Access Control - Canon Oce PlotWave 300 Administration Manual

Access control

Access control
Introduction
Access control allows to limit the access to the Océ system according to IP filtering method.
Use the access restriction to limit the access to the printer
NOTE
Important: ALWAYS define the hosts before enabling Access control.
In case Access control is enabled without any host configured, communication is blocked. Go to
the printer user panel to disable Access control.
Enable 'Access control' and set the list of IP addresses of the computers (hosts) that will be able
to communicate with the printer. This action sets the IP filtering. The access restriction is then
applied to print operations (for which a host workstation contacts the printer) as well as scan
operations (the scanner contacts the external location).
In case DHCP and DNS servers are used:
• Add the DHCP server in the list of the Access control stations.
Otherwise the DHCP protocol is disabled: you can disable the DHCP settings in the
Configuration - Connectivity settings and configure the network settings manually.
• Add the DNS server in the list of the Access control stations.
Otherwise the DNS protocol is disabled: you can configure the path of the external locations
with the IP address instead of a hostname.
NOTE
When configuring the 'Access control station: IPv6 address', use the IPv6 static address (instead
of a dynamic stateless or stateful one)
You can define up to 5 hosts.
For each of the hosts you can decide whether the communication from this host to the system
needs to be encrypted by IPsec (see
You enable 'Access control' in Océ Express WebTools. You can disable it in Océ Express
WebTools or via the printer user panel.
NOTE
• 'Configuration' of the 'Access control' settings is only available to the 'System administrator'
and 'Power user'.
• To prevent unauthorised access to these settings via the printer user panel:
- on Océ PlotWave 340/360, ensure that the 'Password to change network settings' is set
- on Océ PlotWave 500, you must log in as a System administrator to edit the network settings
• When you enable Access control and/or IPsec, configure the path of the external locations
with the IP address instead of a hostname (the DNS protocol is disabled).
