Configuring with the WBM
6.3 The menu items of the WBM
Parameter
DCP protocol
Web server protocols
Disable the "Allow write access" function if you want to ensure that no access to the reader
takes place via DCP. This setting prevents the reader from being reset to factory settings via
SINEC PNI, for example.
Note
Disabling the network ports
Make sure that you do not disable the port via which you are currently communicating with
the device.
Note
Requirement for port statistics
You can read out port statistics using PROFINET diagnostics and via SNMP.
SNMP
In the "SNMP" area, you can enable/disable the network protocol. "SNMP" is a protocol for
monitoring network components.
This setting is activated at the factory. If you do not use the protocol, we recommend that
you disable the setting for security reasons.

Allow write access

Description
In this area, you can define whether or not write access to the reader via
DCP protocols is allowed. Depending on the decision made here, the
factory settings may or may not be restored to the reader via SINEC PNI,
for example.
In this area, you can specify which web server protocols can be used to
access the WBM of the reader.
For security reasons, it is recommended that you disable the "HTTP"
function, since this protocol does not encrypt the data.
