conguration is successful, HP Web Jetadmin adds the credentials for that device to the store. If a device
credential failure occurs, HP Web Jetadmin displays the Needed Credentials wizard and you can add the device
credentials to HP Web Jetadmin. After you add the required credentials, the device conguration should succeed.
This state can also be detected in post-conguration in either Conguration History or in the Credentials
Required column. After the required credential values exist in the Credentials Store, prompting from
HP Web Jetadmin should not occur unless the values on the device change.
Device File System Password
If a le system password exists on the device and if it is not captured in HP Web Jetadmin’s Credential Store, you
will be prompted for the password when attempting to perform any conguration action. Device le system
passwords can be congured on the devices from HP Web Jetadmin. When these are congured, they are also
placed into the Credential Store. Global le system credentials can be added to HP Web Jetadmin through
Tools > Options > Shared > Credentials > Device > File System (Manage the Global File System Passwords
on page 58). These are used when no password exists in the store and one is required by the device.
Sensitive Device Information
In some cases, HP Web Jetadmin sends sensitive information to the device. This information can include user
and password detail such as device Digital Send features or other device security features that require
credentials. In this case HP Web Jetadmin is sending the information using the SSL/TLS protocol. This protocol
allows HP Web Jetadmin to send encrypted information to the device and prevents clear-text information from
being 'snied' through a network trace utility. When communicating with the device through the SSL/TLS
protocol, HP Web Jetadmin uses certicates stored on the printer's HP Jetdirect network interface. These
certicates can be self-signed or they can be signed by a veriable certicate authority. At this time,
HP Web Jetadmin does not check the authenticity of certicates stored on the device; it simply uses the
certicate when communicating with the device through the SSL/TLS protocol. This security limitation could be
exploited, allowing unauthorized individuals access to sensitive information like user and password detail.
Administrators should keep this in mind when managing sensitive device information using HP Web Jetadmin
software.
Importing a Conguration from a File
A CSV (comma separated value) le can be created and then imported into HP Web Jetadmin for the purpose of
device conguration. This provides a way to congure a eet of devices with unique parameters that would
otherwise have to be congured one device at a time. CSV les can easily be created by exporting data from a
spreadsheet or word processing program.
Here is an example of a device conguration scenario:
●
30 devices exist: 16.24.1.26-16.24.1.56
●
Asset number assignments are required: Abc10040-Abc10070
●
Assignments are made respective to IP address sequence
The following table is an example of the CSV le for this device conguration scenario.
IP Addr Port Asset Number
16.24.1.26 1 Abc10040
