Net Management:

  • Actually being proactive and not waiting for probs to happen

Methods:

  • SNMP: Simple Net Management Protocol
  • Versions 1 + 2 are not secure it is all clear text
  • A community string is a password sent in clear text and is also public by default and it is used to access read-only resources
  • V3 of SNMP supports encryption but a lot of legacy devices don't support V3
  • Always change the defaults
  • pfSense is supported
  • When enabled it will listen to 161
  • The device will send an SNMP trap to a management sys listening on UDP/162 for a more proactive response
