Managing your network printer securely using BRAdmin Professional (for Windows®)

Managing your network printer securely using BRAdmin Professional (for Windows^®)

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).
•	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).
•	If you are managing a mixed group of older print servers² 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.
