V7122 Gateway User Guide
357
If possible, use a RADIUS server for authentication. RADIUS allows you to set different
passwords for different users of the gateway, with centralized management of the
password database. Both Web and Telnet interfaces support RADIUS authentication
(see
SRTP
).
If the number of users that access the Web and Telnet interfaces is limited, you can use
the ‘Web and Telnet Access List’ to define up to ten IP addresses that are permitted to
access these interfaces. Access from an undefined IP address is denied (see
Configuring the Web and Telnet Access List
).
Use IPSec to secure traffic to all management and control hosts. Since IPSec encrypts
all traffic, hackers cannot capture sensitive data transmitted on the network, and
malicious intrusions are severely limited.
Use HTTPS when accessing the Web interface. Set HTTPSOnly to 1 to allow only
HTTPS traffic (and block port 80). If you don't need the Web interface, disable the Web
server (DisableWebTask).
If you use Telnet, do not use the default port (23). Use SSL mode to protect Telnet traffic
from network sniffing.
If you use SNMP, do not leave the community strings at their default values as they can
be easily guessed by hackers (see
SNMP Community Names
).
Use a firewall to protect your VoIP network from external attacks. Network robustness
may be compromised if the network is exposed to Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. DoS
attacks are mitigated by Stateful firewalls. Do not allow unauthorized traffic to reach the
gateway.
Legal Notice
By default, the gateway supports export-grade (40-bit and 56-bit) encryption due to US
government restrictions on the export of security technologies. To enable 128-bit and 256-bit
encryption on your device, contact your 3Com representative.
