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 BRAdmin¹ 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 BRAdmin¹, you need to disable the access from older versions of BRAdmin¹ from Advanced Setting of SNMP on Configure Protocol page using Web Based Management (web browser). (See Using Web Based Management (web browser) to change the print/scan server settings.)

Disable the Telnet, FTP and TFTP protocols. Accessing the machine using these protocols is not secure. (For how to configure the protocol settings, see Using Web Based Management (web browser) to change the print/scan server settings.) If you disable the FTP, Scan to FTP function will be disabled.

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

If you are managing a mixed group of older print servers² and the new NC-6800h or NC-7600w print servers with BRAdmin Professional, we recommend using a different password in each group. This will ensure security is maintained on the new NC-6800h print sever.
