Using the Embedded Web Server 70
Access Control
Use this tab to display the Access Control List (ACL) on the HP Jetdirect
projector server. An access control list (or host access list) specifies individual
host systems, or networks of host systems, that will be allowed to access the
server and the attached network device. Up to 10 entries can be included on
the list. If the list is empty (no hosts are listed), any supported system can
access the server.
CAUTION
Use caution when using this feature. You may lose your
ability to communicate with the HP Jetdirect projector
server if your system is not properly specified in the list, or
access through HTTP is disabled.
For use of the host access list as a security feature, see
Note
By default, hosts with HTTP connections (for example,
through the embedded Web server) are allowed access to
the projector server regardless of access control list entries.
To disable access by HTTP hosts, clear the Allow Web
Server (HTTP) access checkbox at the bottom of the list.
Host systems are specified by their IP addresses or network number. If the
network contains subnets, an address mask may be used to identify whether
the IP address designates an individual host system or a group of host systems.
Examples. See the table of sample entries below:
IP Address

192.168.1.2
