30 We see the RSA public key is 1024 bits for the self-signed certificate and that the certificate can be used for client and server authentication

31 Under the heading “Jetdirect Certificate”, press “Configure…”

32 Select the radio button “Create Certificate Request”. This will tell Jetdirect to create a public/private key pair and along with some more inform

33 Here is the certificate request. We are going to want to store it. We can cut/paste it or click “Save”. Click “Save As”

34 Store it in a directory on the client. Now we are going to bring up R2’s CA web server.

35 Enter the credentials that will allow a certificate to be issued. And here is the R2’s CA web server. Let’s click the link “Request a Certific

36 Click “advanced certificate request” Select the second link “Submit a certificate request….”

37 We cut and paste the certificate request from Jetdirect into the box provided. We select a certificate template. This template is basically a “coo

40 Cool – it worked. Click “OK” Now – let’s view the contents of this certificate. We can see that the issuer is R2. We also see the Subject CN.

41 We see we have some CRL distribution points in the certificate as well – remember that. Also see that we can do Web Server and Web Client authenti

50 Now we go back to the web page and still get an error!! No!! The problem is that we have a name mismatch. We are using the IP address in the URL

51 We ping it just to be sure. Looks good. We go back to the web browser and enter the name instead of the IP address.

52 Everything worked! Now SSL/TLS is working for HP Jetdirect just like it would work for an Internet secure shopping experience. A Detailed Lo

55 Here the client is sending over the pre_master_secret encrypted with the server’s public key. It is also letting the server know it is changing key

56 Now we have actual client data – this is probably the initial HTTP request encapsulated in SSL/TLS. There was one check that wasn’t done – the C

57 Check for server certificate revocation is not selected.

58 Let’s select it and restart IE7. Here is another HTTPS connection to the same LJ4345MFP. Everything looks the same so far

59 Here we go – looks like before any application data is sent, the CRL is check using http. This one is going to the RootCA Another CRL request to

6 Well, we’ve got one green checkmark and two yellow warnings. Good enough for us! Let’s click “Yes” and establish the HTTPS session with the MFP.

60 Here is the content of the CRL – encrypted of course. A performance hit would occur when CRLs are checked. That is probably why it isn’t chec

71 The status for the CA Certificate is now “Installed” We try again and it still fails!

72 Same message. What did we do wrong?

73 We need the ROOT CA. Jetdirect cannot use Intermediate CAs. Back to the certificate store and now let’s export RootCA’s public key certificate.

74 Try again. Another failure! Let’s check the trace. Here we get a “Certificate Unknown” message. Well, it could be we are using the IP address

75 We use the DNS name and try again. Success!!

76 Now that we are successful, we see the server’s certificate has a SubjectAltName with a dnsName identifier. Remember that the server wanted Jet
