Preparations for Using Another Machine or Server on the Network
To directly access and use Advanced Box on another machine or a file server (Windows server) on the network, you must register the information used to access that as a connection destination.
To select a registered connection destination, on the control panel, press [Network] in [Scan and Store] or [Access Stored Files] in the [Home] screen.
This section describes how to register a Department ID and PIN using Remote UI from a computer.
On the control panel, select [
Settings/Registration] in the [Home] screen or other screen, and then select [Function Settings] to configure the settings.

NOTE
Editing the Information of a Registered Connection Destination
Click the name of the connection destination you want to edit in the [Network Place Settings] screen to edit the registered information.
Restricting the Communication Protocol When Connecting
By restricting the communication protocols that can be used when connected to Advanced Box on another machine or Windows server, you can increase security.
[Protocol for External Reference]Verifying the Server Certificate When Using TLS Encrypted Communication
When the connection destination uses TLS, you can configure the settings to verify a server certificate sent from the connection destination. In the event of an error, the connection is terminated, reducing the risk of spoofing by a third party.
