At a minimum I'd change the failsafe credentials, implement a new admin user and delete the default "admin" and "user" accounts. Turn off ports that are not needed and further, park them in a VLAN that goes nowhere. Ensure that password lockout is enabled too. Hope this helps...<BR /> <BR /> Eric Mon, 08 Jan 2018 10:12:00 GMT https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremeswitching-exos-switch/what-are-the-security-best-practices-for-management-access-lines/m-p/48724#M12797 Eric_Burke 2018-01-08T10:12:00Z https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremeswitching-exos-switch/what-are-the-security-best-practices-for-management-access-lines/m-p/48725#M12798 Hi Yusuf,<BR /> <BR /> Adding to Eric, this link should be helpful as well. <BR /> <A href="https://gtacknowledge.extremenetworks.com/articles/Q_A/EXOS-Switch-Security-Checklist-and-best-practice" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">https://gtacknowledge.extremenetworks.com/articles/Q_A/EXOS-Switch-Security-Checklist-and-best-pract...</A><BR /> <BR /> Tue, 09 Jan 2018 07:16:00 GMT https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremeswitching-exos-switch/what-are-the-security-best-practices-for-management-access-lines/m-p/48725#M12798 Karthik_Mohando 2018-01-09T07:16:00Z
