enabled by default:
Strong password policies with automatic validation and verification checks
Required update of the default passwords after the initial setup
Only secure communication protocols, such as SSH and SSL. Unencrypted protocols, such as
HTTP, Telnet, and SNMPv1, are disabled.
Certificates to establish secure, trusted connections for applications that run on the management
processors
