Configuring the WebDAV transmission environment
Overview
The WebDAV transmission is a function that transmits 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.
Configure settings for connecting to the network such as setting of the IP address of this machine
For details on configuring the setting, refer to [Configuring network environment settings] .Configure basic settings for the WebDAV transmission
For details on configuring the setting, refer to [Configure basic settings for the WebDAV transmission] .Set the following options according to your environment
Purpose
Reference
Send files to the WebDAV server via the proxy server
Communicate with the WebDAV server using SSL
Configure basic settings for the WebDAV transmission
Enable the WebDAV transmission. In addition, configure the settings for connecting to the WebDAV server.
In the administrator mode, select [Network] - [WebDAV Settings] - [WebDAV Client Settings], then configure the following settings.
Settings | Description |
|---|---|
[WebDAV TX Setting] | Select [ON] to use the WebDAV transmission function. [ON] is specified by default. |
[Chunk Transmission] | Select whether to transmit data by dividing it into some chunks. Configure the setting if your WebDAV server supports chunk transmission. [OFF] is specified by default. |
[Connection Timeout] | If necessary, change the time-out time to limit a communication with the WebDAV server. [60] sec. is specified by default. |
[Server Authentication Character Code] | Select a character code to perform the authentication under the WebDAV server. You can use this setting when [Japanese] is specified for the language to be displayed on the Touch Panel. [UTF-8] is specified by default. |
Using the proxy server
When the proxy server is used in your network environment, you can configure settings so that the WebDAV server is accessed via the proxy server.
To use the proxy server, register the proxy server information on this machine. In addition, configure the settings for connection to the proxy server.
In the administrator mode, select [Network] - [WebDAV Settings] - [WebDAV Client Settings], then configure the following settings.
Settings | Description |
|---|---|
[Proxy Server Address] | Enter the proxy server address. Use one of the following formats.

[Password] | Enter the password of the user name you entered into [User Name] (using up to 63 characters). To enter (change) the password, select the [Password is changed.] check box, then enter a new password. |
Using SSL communication
Communication between this machine and the WebDAV server is encrypted with SSL.
If a communication with the WebDAV server is encrypted using SSL in your environment, configure its setting.
Enable SSL for WebDAV destinations registered on this machine. In addition, specify how to verify the certificate.
In the administrator mode, select [Store Address] - [Address Book] - [WebDAV], and set [SSL Settings] to [ON] (Default: [OFF]).
To directly enter a destination WebDAV server, configure SSL setting when entering the destination.In the administrator mode, select [Network] - [WebDAV Settings] - [WebDAV Client Settings], then configure the certificate verification method.
