10.6 Management Access Deployment Considerations
Before defining an access control configuration as part of a Management Access policy, refer to the following
deployment guidelines to ensure the configuration is optimally effective:
• Unused management protocols should be disabled to reduce a potential attack.
• Use management interfaces providing encryption and authentication. Management services like HTTPS, SSH and
SNMPv3 should be used when possible, as they provide both data privacy and authentication.
• By default, SNMPv2 community strings on most devices are set to public for the read-only community string and
private for the read-write community string. Legacy Motorola Solutions devices may use other community strings
by default.
• Motorola Solutions recommends SNMPv3 be used for device management, as it provides both encryption, and
authentication.
• Enabling SNMP traps can provide alerts for isolated attacks at both small radio deployments or distributed attacks
occurring across multiple sites.
