0KCY-087 Configuring Ethernet Settings Ethernet is a standard for communicating data in a local area network (LAN). You can set the communication mode (half-duplex/full- duplex) and the Ethernet type (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX). In general, the machine can be used without changing the defaults Ethernet Driver Settings), but you can change these settings to suit your network environment.
0KCY-088 Changing the Maximum Transmission Unit In most Ethernet networks, the maximum size of a packet that can be sent is 1500 bytes. A packet refers to a chunk of data into which the original data is divided before being sent. The maximum transmission unit (MTU) may vary on each network. Change the settings of the machine as necessary.
0KCY-089 Setting a Wait Time for Connecting to a Network When a network is designed to enjoy redundant connectivity with multiple switching hubs or bridges, it must have a mechanism to prevent packets from looping. One effective solution is to define the role of each switch port. However, communication may still be disrupted for several tens of seconds immediately after you change the way that network devices are connected, or if you add a new device.

0KCY-091 Changing Port Numbers Ports serve as endpoints for communicating with other devices. Typically, conventional port numbers are used for major protocols, but devices that use these port numbers are vulnerable to attacks because these port numbers are well-known. To enhance security, your Network Administrator may change the port numbers.
0KCY-092 Setting a Proxy A proxy (or HTTP proxy server) refers to a computer or software that carries out HTTP communication for other devices, especially when communicating with resources outside the network, such as when browsing Web sites. The client devices connect to the outside network through the proxy server, and do not communicate directly to the resources outside.

0KCY-094 Restricting Access to Address Book and Sending Functions Some cases of information leakage can be prevented by limiting the available fax and e-mail destinations to those registered in the Address Book or by setting a PIN for the Address Book so that unauthorized users cannot add or edit Address Book entries. You can also avoid sending documents to unintended recipients if the machine is set to ask you to enter the fax number twice for confirmation.
0KCY-095 Setting a PIN for Address Book The Address Book can be set to require users to enter a PIN in order to add new entries to the Address Book or edit existing entries. Setting a PIN to the Address Book can reduce the risk of documents being sent to unintended recipients because changes to the Address Book can only be made by users who know the PIN.
0KCY-096 Limiting Available Destinations By limiting fax numbers that can be specified when sending documents to those already registered as One- Touch Dial and coded dial numbers, you can reduce the possibility of specifying incorrect destinations and prevent users from leaking information. When this function is enabled, the machine prohibits users from entering destinations using the numeric keys, adding new entries to the Address Book, and editing the existing Address Book entries.
0KCY-097 Prohibiting PC Faxing You can prohibit users from PC faxing (faxing from a computer). Tap <Menu> in the Home Screen. Tap <Fax Settings>. Select <TX Function Settings> <Allow Fax Driver TX>.

0KCY-09E Disabling HTTP Communication HTTP is used for communications over the network, such as when you access the machine via the Remote UI. If you are using a USB connection or are otherwise not using HTTP, you can disable HTTP to block malicious third-party intrusions via the unused HTTP port. Disabling HTTP disables some of the network capabilities, such as the Remote UI, WSD printing.
0KCY-09F Disabling Remote UI The Remote UI is useful because the machine settings can be specified by using a Web browser on a computer. To use the Remote UI, the machine must be connected to a computer over the network. If you do not need to use the Remote UI, you might want to disable the Remote UI to reduce the risk of having your machine controlled remotely over the network by malicious third parties.
0KCY-09X Using Remote UI Using a Web browser to operate the machine remotely, you can check the documents waiting to be printed or the status of the machine. You can also make some settings such as registering the Address Book. You can do this without leaving your desk, making system management easier.
0KCY-09Y Starting Remote UI To operate remotely, you need to input the IP address of the machine into a Web browser and start the Remote UI. Check the IP address set to the machine in advance ( Viewing Network Settings). If you have any questions, ask your Network Administrator. Start the Web browser.
