Hello,
Can anyone help me with this question?
Cisco 2900 router doesn't have a dedicated management port. If we put it on the internet, how can we manage it safely?
We'd like to access it through telnet/ssh and SNMP (read-only).
Is there any way we can do so without worrying about or configuring additional access-lists?
Right now what we do is that we have a terminal server connected to its console port so at least we can do configuration. But this doesn't help us to plot traffic charts. For traffic statistics, we'd need SNMP access. Although we could dedicate one interface for SNMP use, this would expose our internal network to the internet. If we use access-lists to block SNMP access from internet, this could make the configuration messy, and prone to attacks.
Is there a cleaner solution?
Thank you very much!
