Using TCP Socket
Setting flow
To use application that communicates with this machine via TCP Socket, configure the TCP Socket settings of this machine.
If a certificate for this machine is registered, you can encrypt communication between the machine and application using SSL.
To perform the association via TCP Socket, follow the below procedure to configure the settings.
Configuring network settings of this machine ( [Network Settings] )
Configuring basic settings for TCP Socket ( [Configuring the basic TCP Socket settings] )
Configuring settings to suit your environment
Establishing SSL communication ( [Using SSL communication] )
Tips
If you installed user authentication using an external authentication server, SSL communication settings are required.
Configuring the basic TCP Socket settings
Configure settings to establish a communication via TCP Socket.
Select [Network] - [TCP Socket Setting] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and configure the following settings.

Tips- If you change multiple port numbers collectively in Web Connection or on the screen of this machine, a port number duplication error may appear. If a port number duplication error appears, change multiple port numbers one by one instead of changing them collectively.
Using SSL communication
Use SSL to encrypt communication between this machine and application via TCP Socket.
Register a certificate for this machine and enable SSL communication ( [Using an SSL/TLS communication] ).
Select [Network] - [TCP Socket Setting] in administrator mode of Web Connection (or in [Utility] - [Administrator] of this machine), and configure the following settings.
Setting
