Authentication
Authentication is used to validate the identification of each device or computer that is
attempting to access a network. The authentication method used on a network is deter-
mined during network design and depends on the network security requirements. Con-
sequently, authentication methods are closely associated with encryption options that are
also used on the network.

HP Jetdirect wireless print servers support the following authentication methods:
Open System. Authentication is not used, virtually allowing open access to a device.
Encryption may or may not be used, depending on the need for data security.
Encryption may or may not be used, depending on the need for data security.
Shared Key. Authentication is based on a secret, common WEP key that must be
configured on each device. A device that does not have the proper WEP key cannot
access the network.
configured on each device. A device that does not have the proper WEP key cannot
access the network.
RADIUS using MD5. RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service, RFC
2138) servers are used to receive client connection requests and authenticate the client.
This authentication method uses 802.1x EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) and
MD5 (Message-Digest Algorithm 5, RFC 1321). A User Name and Password must be
configured on the device. If the network’s Access Point uses WEP keys, then the WEP
key must also be configured on the device.

RADIUS using TLS. RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service, RFC
2138) servers are used to receive client connection requests and authenticate the client.
This authentication method uses 802.1x EAP-TLS (Extensible Authentication Proto-
col—Transport Layer Security, RFC 2716). This authentication method requires that
an X.509-compliant digital certificate be installed on the device. In addition, dynamic
WEP keys under the control of the authentication server are used and must be support-
ed by the access point.
