Zorluk: OrtaMultifunction Devices and Printer Configuration

A network technician is configuring an enterprise multifunction device (MFD) for web-based remote management. Company policy requires that all administrative sessions to the Embedded Web Server (EWS) be secure and encrypted to protect login credentials across the local network. Which protocol and configuration requirement should the technician enable on the MFD?

  1. HTTPS using a valid TLS certificateCevap
  2. B
    HTTP using default port 80 with SSH tunneling
  3. C
    DHCP option 66 for web server redirection
  4. D
    Layer 2 MAC filtering on the Embedded Web Server

Cevap

HTTPS using a valid TLS certificate
The Embedded Web Server (EWS) on a multifunction device allows technicians to manage print jobs, settings, and access rights remotely via a browser. To secure this access and comply with security mandates, enabling HTTPS ensures all browser-to-MFD communications are encrypted via TLS.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the requirement for securing administrative access to the MFD's Web-based Management Interface.
Recognize that web administration uses HTTP by default, which sends unencrypted data over port 80.
Plaintext administration allows credentials to be captured by network sniffers.
2
Select the protocol standard designed for secure, encrypted web communications.
Determine that HTTPS (port 443) utilizing TLS protocol encryption fulfills the encryption security policy.
HTTPS ensures confidentiality and integrity of web management sessions.
