Managing your network printer securely using BRAdmin Professional (for Windows®)9
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
BRAdmin1 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 BRAdmin1, you need to disable access
from older versions of BRAdmin1 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 54.
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 54.
If you are managing a mixed group of older print servers2 and the new NC-6600h 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 print server.
