Ethernet Security

There are TCP access lists available to restrict host connections with the
device.

Users And Passwords

The ethernet supports two user types:
root
guest
Passwords can be set for each user type. However, most often you will just
set a password for the root user to protect the ethernet configuration. Guest
users cannot alter the print server configuration in any way.
To configure a root password on your ethernet:
1. Load a Web browser on a network station that can communicate with the
print server over TCP/IP. The commands to set a root password are:
Syntax:
set user passwd username password
save
Example:
set user passwd root your_password_for_root
save
2. Direct your Web browser to URL:
http://EthernetIPaddress/adminConf.html
(e.g., http://192.75.11.9/adminConf.html).
NOTE: If prompted for a "User ID" and password first, type root for the user
3. At the "Administration Configuration" HTML form that displays, scroll
down to the "Passwords" section.
4. Click within the "Old" field beside the "Root Password" heading and enter
the existing root password. By default, there is no root password, so you
can go to the next step without typing anything in this field.

Extra Features

Access to everything within the print server including all
configurable settings.
Ability to list settings only.
ID and press ENTER at the password prompt (since there is no
password by default).
