Quick Security Setting

Configure the following settings as desired in order to maintain security.

• Quick IP Filtering
  You can limit the range of IP address allowed to connect to the machine according to its IP address only or both IP address and Subnet Mask.

• Administrator Password
  An administrator is usually not allowed to activate or deactivate the administrator authentication function. Accordingly, setting an administrator password is unavailable while the administrator authentication function is set to OFF.
  [Quick Security Setting] allows you to set a desired administrator password only if the administrator authentication function is OFF and the default administrator password is kept unchanged. In this case, the administrator authentication function is automatically turned ON.
  Even when the administrator password has been changed from the default, the administrator authentication function can be turned ON by changing the administrator password to another one only if the administrator authentication function is set to OFF.
  While the administrator authentication function is set to ON, you can change the administrator password not only from [UTILITY] - [Quick Security Setting] but also from [UTILITY] - [Administrator Setting] - [Security Setting].

• Password Rules Setting
  By setting the password rules more strictly than usual, you can allow only the passwords that comply with the rules to be valid on the machine. This function sets the machine to accept only the passwords that comply with the rules in such a case when setting a password to a folder containing data or when changing or registering various passwords.

• Web Utilities Setting
  You can select whether or not to use the functionality of Web Utilities which might cause problems without ensuring the security management.

• Web Setting
  You can select whether or not to use the functionality of Web Connection which might also cause problems without ensuring the security management.

• Security Warning Display
  This function sets the machine to display the Security Setting Warning screen to prompt you to change the administrator password in order to turn ON the administrator authentication function, in such a case when the machine power is turned ON with the condition that the default administrator password is kept unchanged or the administrator authentication function is set to OFF.
