Description
Specifies the name of the wireless network to which the HP
Jetdirect print server will connect. The Network Name is also
called the SSID (Service Set Identifier) and identifies the ESS
(Extended Service Set) that is normally associated with larger
Infrastructure Mode networks.
An empty (or "blank") SSID field is accepted, for example, on
networks that rely on signal strength, encryption and
authentication methods to control network access.
The factory-default SSID configured on the HP Jetdirect print
server is "hpsetup". To initially communicate with the print server,
your wireless computer's SSID must also be "hpsetup". (Note: the
SSID characters are case-sensitive. Be sure to use the
appropriate lower- or uppercase characters.)
(No authentication) Select this authentication method if your
wireless network does not require device authentication or
security to access the network. However, your network may still
use encryption keys for data privacy.
(Requires a WEP key) Select this authentication method if each
device on your wireless network uses a shared encryption key
(that is, a shared "password" value) for network access and
communications. Each device on the network must use the same
key. The HP Jetdirect print server supports IEEE 802.11 Wired
Equivalent Privacy (WEP) keys for encrypted network
communications. If you select Shared Key authentication, you
must configure WEP keys.
(Infrastructure mode only) Select 802.1x Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP) for advanced authentication.
EAP/802.1x is used with an authentication server, such as a
RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service, RFC 2138)
server, for wireless network access. If EAP/802.1x authentication
is selected, you will need to configure additional parameters.
Some parameters will depend on the EAP/802.1x protocols that
you enable for use on your network.
