Preventing Unauthorized Access
5YHU-009
This section describes security measures to prevent unauthorized access from an external network. All users and administrators should read this before using the device, other printers, and multifunction devices connected to the network. In recent years, a printer/multifunction device connected to the network can offer a wide range of useful functions, such as printing from a computer, controlling the printer from a computer using the remote function, and sending scanned documents over the Internet. On the other hand, it is essential to take security measures to reduce the risk of information leakage, as a printer/multifunction device has become more exposed to threats such as unauthorized access and theft when connected to the network. This section describes the necessary settings that you must perform to prevent unauthorized access before using the printer/multifunction device connected to the network.
Security Measures to Prevent Unauthorized Access from the External Network
1. Assigning a Private IP Address (P. 18) 2. Using a Firewall to Restrict Transmissions (P. 19) 3. Specifying TLS Encrypted Communications (P. 19) 4. Configuring a PIN Code to Manage Information Stored on the Multifunction Device (P. 19)
Assigning a Private IP Address
An IP address is a numerical label assigned to each device that is part of a computer network. A "global IP address" is used for communication by connecting to the Internet, and a "private IP address" is used for communication within a local network, such as a LAN, in a company. If a global IP address is assigned to your printer/multifunction device, it is open to the public and can be accessed via the Internet. Therefore, the risk of information leakage due to unauthorized access from an external network increases. On the other hand, if a private IP address is assigned, your printer/multifunction device is confined to the local network and can only be accessed by users on their local network, such as a company LAN.
Global IP address: Can be accessed from an external network.
Private IP address: Can be accessed by users on a local network.
In general, assign a private IP address to your printer/multifunction device. Make sure to check whether the IP address assigned to the printer/multifunction device you are using is a private IP address or not. A private IP address falls within one of the following ranges.
■ Private IP address ranges
From 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255, from 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255, from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
For more information on how to check the IP address, refer to "IPv4 Address Settings" (P. 42).
NOTE
If a global IP address is assigned to a printer/multifunction device, you can create a network environment aimed at reducing the risk of unauthorized access by installing security software, such as
a firewall, which prevents access from external networks. If you wish to assign a global IP address to a printer/multifunction device and use it, contact your network administrator.
Using a firewall to restrict transmissions
A firewall is a system that prevents unauthorized access from external networks and protects against attacks/intrusions on a local network. You can use a firewall in your network environment to block access from an external network that is considered dangerous by restricting communications from the specific IP address of an external network. The function installed on a Canon printer/multifunction device allows you to define IP address filtering. For more information on how to configure IP address filtering, refer to "Specifying IP Addresses for Firewall Settings" (P. 233).
Specifying encrypted TLS communications
For more information on encrypted TLS communications, refer to the section Configuring Network Security Settings (P. 230), and for specific procedures, refer to the section Configuring the Key with Certificate Used for TLS (P. 243).
If a malicious third party attempts to access a printer/multifunction device, configuring a PIN for the information stored in the device can help reduce the risk of information leakage. Canon printers/multifunction devices allow you to protect various types of information by configuring a PIN.
■Configuring a PIN for Each Function
- Configuring a PIN for Using the Remote UI
For more information, refer to the section Configuring a PIN for the Remote UI (P. 228).
- Configuring a PIN for System Administrator Settings
For more information, refer to the section Specifying the PIN and System Administrator ID (P. 220).
The above are some examples of security measures to prevent unauthorized access. For more information on other security measures, refer to the section Managing the Device (P. 217) and take the necessary security measures to prevent unauthorized access to your environment.

Monitoring and Controlling the Computer via SNMP
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol dedicated to monitoring and controlling communication peripherals on a network and involves a Management Information Base (MIB). The device supports SNMPv1 as well as SNMPv3, which has advanced security features. You can check the device status from a computer when printing documents or using the remote user interface. You are free to enable SNMPv1, SNMPv3, or both protocols at the same time. Specify the settings for each version to adapt them to your network environment and network usage.
SNMP Manager
SNMPv1
SNMPv1 uses information called "community" to define the scope of SNMP communications. Since this information is exposed on the network in plain text, your network is vulnerable. If you want to strengthen network security, disable SNMPv1 and prefer SNMPv3.
SNMPv3
With SNMPv3, you can implement network device management protected by powerful security features. Note that you must first enable TLS mode for the remote user interface before you can configure SNMPv3 (Configuring the Key with Certificate Used for TLS (P. 243)).
NOTE
The device does not support the SNMP trap notification function. - To change the SNMP port number, refer to the section "Modifying Port Numbers (P. 239)". - The SNMP management software installed on a network computer allows you to configure, monitor, and control the device remotely from the computer.
