Chapter 4. Securing Administration

© Copyright Lenovo 2017
Secure switch management is needed for environments that perform significant
management functions across the Internet. Common functions for secured
management are described in the following sections:
 "Secure Shell and Secure Copy" on page 88
 "End User Access Control" on page 93
Note: SNMP read and write functions are enabled by default. For best security
practices, if SNMP is not needed for your network, it is recommended that you
disable these functions prior to connecting the switch to the network (see
Chapter 35, "Simple Network Management Protocol).
