Configuring SNMP for Maximum Security
Configuring the SNMP Access Control List
If you are using SNMP, you must configure it using the EWS. If you are not using SNMP,
disable it to prevent unauthorized access through applications that use SNMP. For information
on disabling SNMP, see
SNMP is a set of protocols designed to help manage complex networks. SNMP-compliant
devices store data about themselves in MIBs and return this data to the SNMP requestors. The
SNMP configuration pages provide control over SNMP security, including the methods to
configure:
Administrative and Key User Accounts with privacy and authentication protocols and
keys associated with each account.
SNMP user account read or read/write access.
An access control list that limits SNMP access to the printer specific hosts.
Note:
The Current State field on the SNMP Configuration page identifies the SNMP
enable/disable status. Possible values include SNMP v3 Enabled, SNMP v1/v2c Enabled,
and All SNMP Protocols Disabled.
Configuring SNMP for Maximum Security

An SSL certificate must be established on the printer to enable SNMP v3. In most cases,
a certificate is automatically established when the printer is first turned on and no other action
is required.
