Secure Management using BRAdmin Professional 3 (for Windows®)

To use the BRAdmin Professional 3 utility securely, you need to follow the points below.

„We strongly recommend to use the latest version of the BRAdmin Professional 3 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 machines the user authentication will not be secure.

„If you want to avoid access to your printer from older versions of BRAdmin 1, you need to disable the access from older versions of BRAdmin 1 from Advanced Setting of SNMP on Configure Protocol page using Web Based Management (web browser). See Secure Management using Web Based Management (web browser) on page 85.

„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 68.

„If you use BRAdmin Professional 3 and Web Based Management (web browser) together, use Web Based Management with the HTTPS protocol. See Secure Management using Web Based Management (web browser) on page 85.

„If you are managing a mixed group of older print servers 2 and the new 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.
