2. Network Security

The imagePRESS C800/C700 Series machines secure network
communications by using IP Address and MAC (Media Access Control)
Address filters, encryption and authentication, and network port and
application access control.
a) Filtering by Port Number
Using the Address Filter system administrators can grant or deny
access to the imagePRESS C800/C700 Series for specific groups or
users via Port numbers (MAC Addresses). Port Number filtering
permits or rejects incoming packets from IP addresses or ranges of
IP addresses. In addition, IP address filters to outbound connections
can be applied. For example, if functions, such as Remote Copy and
Universal Send are used, system administrators can block or restrict
users from sending files to specific IP addresses. This minimizes the
risk of data being sent out of the company to systems that are not
trusted.
b) IPv6
The imagePRESS C800/C700 Series supports Internet Protocol
Version 6 (IPv6), which is a network layer protocol designated as the
successor to IPv4 for general use on the Internet. Support for IPv6
adds extended business value to the imagePRESS C800/C700
Series.
