Interface Security Access Notes
Authentication
Authentication versus encryption
You can select to use security features for the Switched Rack PDU that
control access by providing basic authentication through user names,
passwords, and
IP addresses, without using encryption. These basic
security features are sufficient for most environments, in which sensitive
data is not being transferred.
Firewalls
Although some methods of authentication provide a higher level of security
than others, complete protection from security breaches is almost
impossible to achieve. Well-configured firewalls are an essential element in
an overall security scheme.
