Configuring the Initial Device Settings
This section describes the initial settings specified on the devices managed by this software.

When using the Canon protocol, set [Dedicated Port Settings] to [On].
IMPORTANT |
Do not set [Dedicated Port Settings] to [Off] for a device while this software is operating. Information will become unable to be retrieved from the device. |
3.
Configure the settings for name resolution if the device is set to communicate with only IPv6 addresses.

The operation method differs according to the device type. Configure the DNS settings other than the following according to the operation environment. |

When using SNMPv1 to communicate with devices
Set [SNMP Settings] > [Use SNMP v. 1] to [On].
Set [MIB Access Permis.] to [Read Only] for the SNMP community name to use for communication with this software.
The setting does not need to be changed if it is already set to [Read/Write].
For devices with a PS print server attached, if it is necessary to set both [Read/Write] and [Read Only], set a name for the [Read/Write] SNMP community name that differs from the [Read Only] SNMP community name.
When using SNMPv3 to communicate with devices
Set [SNMP Settings] > [Use SNMP v. 3] to [On].
Set [MIB Access Permis.] to [Read Only] for the user to use for communication with this software.
The setting does not need to be changed if it is already set to [Read/Write].

When setting [Authentication Algorithm] to SHA2, select a hash length other than 224 bit. This software does not support 224 bit hash lengths. |
