Installing Certificates
To ensure that the printer can communicate with other devices over a secure trusted connection, both
devices must have specific certificates installed.
For protocols such as HTTPS, the printer is the server, and must prove its identity to the client Web
browser. For protocols such as 802.1X, the printer is the client, and must prove its identity to the
authentication server, typically a RADIUS server.
For features that use these protocols, perform the following tasks:
•
Install a device certificate on the printer.
Note: When the printer uses HTTPS, a Xerox ® Device Certificate is created and installed on the
printer automatically.
• Install a copy of the CA certificate that was used to sign the device certificate of the printer on the
other device.
Protocols such as LDAP and IPsec require both devices to prove their identity to each other.
For features that use these protocols, perform the tasks listed under one of the following options:
To install certificates, option 1:
•
Install a device certificate on the printer.
• Install a copy of the CA certificate that was used to sign the device certificate of the printer on the
other device.
• Install a copy of the CA certificate that was used to sign the certificate of the other device on the
printer.
To install certificates, option 2:
If the other device is using a self-signed certificate, install a copy of the trusted certificate of the other
device on the printer.
