Question

A city WLAN team wants one management-plane hardening baseline for controllers and APs. Which combination best matches preventative practice?

Accepted Answer

Management-plane ACLs plus disabling Telnet, HTTP, and SNMPv1/v2c in favor of secure alternatives. — Think of the management plane as the locked utility closet: ACLs decide who gets a key, and you throw away Telnet/HTTP/SNMPv1 like broken padlocks. Do not hang that closet on the guest Wi-Fi hallway.

Answer

Telnet + HTTP + SNMPv1 on every interface for ‘compatibility’.

Answer

Open management from the Internet with default passwords for vendor support.

Answer

Guest SSID bridging into the out-of-band management VLAN for convenience.
