We recommend disabling the Telnet, FTP, TFTP protocols and the network management with older versions of BRAdmin¹ for secure communication. If you enable them, the user authentication is not secure.

¹	BRAdmin Professional older than Ver. 2.80, Web BRAdmin older than Ver. 1.40, BRAdmin Light for Macintosh^® older than Ver. 1.10

A check box only appears for an individual protocol or the older BRAdmin utility if they are already enabled.

Restart the printer to activate the configuration.

Now the certificate and private key are imported to your printer. To use SSL/TLS communication, the Root Certificate from the CA needs to also be installed on your computer. Contact your network administrator about the installation.
