Disabling Web management access by HP ProCurve Manager
By default, TCP ports 80 is enabled on the Brocade device. TCP port 80 (HTTP) allows access to the
device’s Web management interface.
By default, TCP port 280 for HP Top tools is disabled. This tool allows access to the device by HP
ProCurve Manager.
The no web-management command disables both TCP ports. However, if you want to disable only
port 280 and leave port 80 enabled, use the hp-top-tools option with the command. Here is an
example.
BigIron RX(config)# no web-management hp-top-tools
Syntax: [no] web-management hp-top-tools
The hp-top-tools parameter disables TCP port 280.
Disabling SNMP access
SNMP is enabled by default on the device. SNMP is required if you want to manage a device using
Brocade Network Advisor.
Enter the command to disable SNMP management of the device.
BigIron RX(config)# no snmp-server enable traps
Enter the command to later re-enable SNMP management of the device.
BigIron RX(config)# snmp-server enable traps
Syntax: [no] snmp-server enable [ethernet | traps |vlan]
Setting passwords
Passwords can be used to secure the following access methods:
•
Telnet access can be secured by setting a Telnet password. Refer to
•
Access to the Privileged EXEC and CONFIG levels of the CLI can be secured by setting
passwords for management privilege levels. Refer to
“Setting passwords for management
This section also provides procedures for enhancing management privilege levels, recovering from
a lost password, and disabling password encryption.
NOTE
You also can configure up to 16 user accounts consisting of a user name and password, and assign
each user account a management privilege level. Refer to
“Setting up local user accounts”
Setting a Telnet password
By default, the device does not require a user name or password when you log in to the CLI using
Telnet.
