Best Practice: Use MGT0 or MGT1 Ethernet interface for system-wide management functions to handle network traffic for incoming SNMP, SSH, and Web Management (WebGUI) functions on your intranet. If you have a serial over LAN connection, it must be configured on MGT0. The remaining Ethernet interfaces can handle data traffic and logging functions to and from the various DataPower services.
Attention: Do not forget or misplace the password for the admin account. If you forget or misplace this password, security best practice recommends that you return the appliance to IBM Support to reset this password. However, if another user account can log in and has the appropriate access permission, that user can reset the password for the admin account.
