Disabled unneeded router services and interfaces make the router less vulnerable to attacks. Administrative access should be secured using password security features, proper failed login handling, and role- based CLI. Network devices should be managed using secure protocols, such as SNMPv3, SSH, SSL, and authenticated NTP. Syslog is the ubiquitous logging protocol. ACLs filter malicious traffic and mitigate attacks. AAA operations can be offloaded to a TACACS+ or RADIUS server to increase security and scalability.
