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.
IP Address Set the IP address of the external server resource receiving SNMP traps on behalf of
the access point.
Port Set the server port dedicated to receiving traps. The default port is 162.
Version Set the SNMP version for sending SNMP traps. SNMPv2c is the default.
