IPsec presentation
Introduction
IPsec is a protocol that provides authentication, data confidentiality and integrity in the network
communication between devices.
A strong mechanism of encryption guarantees the confidentiality of the user print and scan data
on the network.
IPsec is particularly suitable in a configuration where you need to create a dedicated secure link
between the printer/copier system and a workstation which can be dedicated as a Print Server (or
a Scan Server).
You can connect up to 5 IPsec stations to the printer/copier system.
In this configuration below:
• The printer/copier system is physically connected to the network but communicates only with a
dedicated station (a Print Server or Scan Server for example)
• The Print Server receives the print request from the workstations via IP on the network
• The Print Server send the print requests to the printer/copier system via IPsec
• The workstations cannot communicate directly with the printer/copier system
NOTE
In this configuration, the back-channel communication between a workstation and the printer is
unavailable (the back-channel information is not displayed in the Océ WPD driver).
NOTE
IPsec is compatible with IPv4 only.
Make sure IPv6 is 'Disabled' before you configure IPsec on the controller.
