Quick-Starting Routers
Assigning SecurID to Telnet Connections
You can enable password protection for your Telnet connections to the router
using SecurID services. See Using Technician Interface Software for information
about enabling SecurID services.
Turning Off FTP and Telnet on the Router
If you have local access to your router or do not need network access to maintain
your router, consider turning off FTP and Telnet. Your router will be more secure
without network access and will require less memory and processing overhead.
You can turn these services off using the BCC or Site Manager. See Configuring
IP Utilities for instructions.
Using the Image Builder to Remove Services
The Image Builder tool provided with Site Manager allows you to modify the
router software image. You can use the Image Builder tool to remove unwanted
services and protocols, such as FTP, from the router. See Configuring and
Managing Routers with Site Manager for more information.
Restricting Access to the HTTP Server
The HTTP Server uses the following Technician Interface logins and passwords to
restrict access:
•
The Manager login allows access to all services. To sign on as Manager on the
HTTP Server, you must first add a password for Manager using the
Technician Interface (see “Assigning a Password to the Technician Interface”
on page 7-2).
•
The User login prohibits access to the SNMP community page and prevents
changes to the ports and protocols on the router. A password is not required.
•
The Operator login prohibits access to the SNMP community page, but allows
you to make changes to the ports and protocols on the router.
For complete information about configuring access to the HTTP (Web) Server, see
Managing Routers Using the HTTP Server.
