IP Security

IP Security (IPsec) is a set of protocols that control IP-based network traffic to and from the product. IPsec

provides host-to-host authentication, data integrity, and encryption of network communications.

For products that are connected to the network and have an HP Jetdirect print server, you can configure IPsec

by using the Networking tab in the HP Embedded Web Server.

When a feature is secured, the product prompts you to sign in before you can use it. You can also sign in
