SNMPv3 read-write access
With this mode the print server uses version 3 of the SNMP protocol. If you want to manage the print server
securely, use this mode.
Note
• When you use the SNMPv3 read-write access mode, please note the following.
• You can manage the print server by using BRAdmin Professional 3 or Web Based Management only.
• Except for BRAdmin Professional 3, all applications that use SNMPv1/v2c will be restricted. To allow
the use of SNMPv1/v2c applications, use SNMPv3 read-write access and v1/v2c read-only access
or SNMP v1/v2c read-write access mode.
• For more information, see the Help text in Web Based Management.
Secure Management using BRAdmin Professional 3
(Windows

To use the BRAdmin Professional 3 utility securely, you need to follow the
points below 8
We strongly recommend to use the latest version of the BRAdmin Professional 3 utility that is available as
a download from http://solutions.brother.com/
. If you use an older version of BRAdmin
1
to manage your
Brother machines the user authentication will not be secure.
If you want to avoid access to your machine from older versions of BRAdmin
1
, you need to disable the
access from older versions of BRAdmin
1
from Advanced Setting of SNMP on Protocol page using Web
Based Management. (See Secure Management using Web Based Management (web browser)
uu page 124.)
If you use BRAdmin Professional 3 and Web Based Management together, use Web Based Management
with the HTTPS protocol. (See Secure Management using Web Based Management (web browser)
uu page 124.)
If you are managing a mixed group of older print servers
2
and print servers with BRAdmin Professional 3,
we recommend using a different password in each group. This will ensure security is maintained on the
new print servers.
