Configuring the WebDAV transmission environment

Setting flow

The WebDAV transmission is a function that sends original data scanned on this machine to a specified folder in the WebDAV Server.

WebDAV, which is an extension to the HTTP specification, provides the same security technologies as HTTP. Use SSL to encrypt a communication with the WebDAV server; you can send a file more securely.

When using the WebDAV transmission, follow the below procedure to configure the settings.

  1. Configuring network settings of this machine (Here)

  2. Configuring basic settings for WebDAV transmission (Here)

  3. Configuring settings to suit your environment

    • Using the proxy server (Here)

    • Establishing SSL communication (Here)

Configure basic settings for the WebDAV transmission

Configure the settings for using the WebDAV Send function.

Select [Network] - [WebDAV Settings] - [WebDAV Client Settings] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and configure the following settings.

Setting

Description

[WebDAV TX Setting]

When using the WebDAV TX function, set this option to ON (default: ON).

[Chunk Transmission]

When sending data by dividing it into some chunks, set this option to ON (default: OFF).

Configure the setting if your WebDAV server supports chunk transmission.

[Connection Timeout]

If necessary, change the time-out time to limit a communication with the WebDAV server (default: [60] sec.).

[Server Authentication Character Code]

Select a character code to perform the authentication under the WebDAV server (default: [UTF-8]).

You can use this setting when [Japanese] is specified for the language to be displayed on the screen of this machine.

[HTTP Version Setting]

Select the version of the protocol for HTTP communication (default: [HTTP/1.1]).

  • [HTTP/1.1]: Uses HTTP/1.1 only.

  • [HTTP/2, HTTP/1.1]: Uses HTTP/2 when connected to HTTP/2. In other cases, HTTP/1.1 is used.

Using a proxy server

When a proxy server is installed in your environment, register the proxy server.

Select [Network] - [WebDAV Settings] - [WebDAV Client Settings] - [Proxy Settings] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and configure the following settings.

Setting

Description

[Proxy Server Address]

Enter the proxy server address. Use one of the following formats.

  • Example to enter the host name: "host.example.com"

  • Example to enter the IP address (IPv4): "192.168.1.1"

  • Example to enter the IP address (IPv6): "fe80::220:6bff:fe10:2f16"

[Proxy Server Port Number]

If necessary, change the proxy server port number (default: [8080]).

[User Name]

Enter the user name used for proxy authentication (using up to 63 characters).

[Password]

Enter the password used for proxy authentication (using up to 63 characters).

Using SSL communication

If SSL is installed in your environment, enable SSL.

  1. Select [Store Address] - [Address Book] - [WebDAV] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and set [SSL Settings] to ON (default: OFF).

    • To directly enter a destination WebDAV server, configure SSL setting when entering the destination.

  2. Select [Network] - [WebDAV Settings] - [WebDAV Client Settings] - [Certificate Verification Level Settings] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and specify the certificate verification method.

    Setting

    Description

    [Expiration Date]

    Confirm whether the certificate is still valid (default: ON).

    [CN]

    Confirm whether CN (Common Name) of the certificate matches the server address (default: OFF).

    [Key Usage]

    Confirm whether the certificate is used according to the intended purpose approved by the certificate issuer (default: OFF).

    [Chain]

    Confirm whether there is a problem in the certificate chain (certificate path) (default: OFF). The chain is validated by referencing the external certificates managed on this machine.
