Managing your network printer securely using BRAdmin
Professional (for Windows
®
) 12
To use the BRAdmin Professional utility securely, you need to follow the points below.
We strongly recommend to use the latest version of the BRAdmin Professional utility or Web BRAdmin
that are available as a download from http://solutions.brother.com
. If you use an older version of
BRAdmin
1
to manage your brother devices the user authentication will not be secure.
If you want to prevent access to your printer from older versions of BRAdmin
1
, you need to disable access
from older versions of BRAdmin
1
from the Advanced Setting of SNMP on Configure Protocol page by
using Web Based Management (web browser). See How to configure the print server settings using Web
Based Management (web browser) on page 109.
Disable the TELNET, FTP and TFTP protocols. Accessing the machine using these protocols is not
secure. For how to configure the protocol settings, see How to configure the print server settings using
Web Based Management (web browser) on page 109.
If you are managing a mixed group of older print servers
2
and the new NC-6600h or NC-7400w print
server with BRAdmin Professional, we recommend using a different password in each group. This will
ensure security is maintained on the new NC-6600h or NC-7400w print server.
