Switched Rack PDU
121
To ensure that data and communication between the Switched Rack PDU
and the client interfaces, such as the control console and the Web interface,
cannot be intercepted, you can provide a greater level of security by using
one or more of the following encryption-based methods:
• For the Web interface, use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and
Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols.
• To encrypt user names and passwords for control console access, use
the Secure SHell (SSH) protocol.
• To encrypt user names, passwords, and data for the secure transfer of
files, use the Secure CoPy (SCP) protocol.
For more information on these protocols for encryption-based
security, see Secure SHell (SSH) and Secure CoPy (SCP) and
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS).
