OSI or Open Systems Interconnection model consists of 7 Layers that describes how telecommunication or computing systems use to communicate or operate over a network. It was the first standard model for network communications and still widely used for network isolation and troubleshooting. Layers Functions / Applications Data Types Examples (7) Application End User / Desktop-Mail Services-Directory Services-Network Virtual Terminal-File transfer access/management Data HTTP,SMTP,FTP,SSH,DNS,Telnet,IMAP,POP3,LDAP,HTTPs,TFTP (6) Presentation Syntax/ Data Representation-Translation-Encryption/Decryption (plain to cipher text)-Compression Data ASCII,JPEG,MPEG,GIF,EBDIC (5) Session Dialog Coordination-Session establishment/maintenance/termination-Synchronization-Dialog…

Here’s the SNMP configuration examples for Huawei routers. Taking the following details: SNMP community: snmpcomm123 Loopback/management IP address: 192.168.10.100 SNMP Polling Server: 192.168.20.199 SNMP Trap Server: 192.168.20.200 Pre-config: (assuming Loopback0 is your source interface to send those SNMP traffic) interface LoopBack0 description _ Loopback for Huawei Router ip address 192.168.10.100 255.255.255.255 SNMPv2c Polling: 1. Configure SNMP (version can be set to all to support v1,v2c and v3) snmp-agent sys-info version all 2. Configure SNMP engine ID and community…
One of the Best Security Practice and Recommendation is to configure Huawei Router in client mode and never run as NTP server. NTP Server1: 192.168.10.101 NTP Server1: 192.168.10.102 Configuration: ntp-service server disable ntp-service ipv6 server disable ntp-service unicast-server 192.168.10.101 ntp-service unicast-server 192.168.10.102 Verification: display ntp-service status display ntp-service sessions If authentication is enabled on your NTP server. -Enable the NTP service authentication function -Configure the NTP authentication key -Specify the NTP key -Configure the NTP server(s) with the authentication key…
SSH Configuration Examples in Huawei Router Here are the configuration examples: whereas: 192.168.100.100 = Jumphost IP (Allowed IP to SSH into the device) Enable the SSH service stelnet server enable 2. Configure key exchange algorithm ssh server key-exchange { dh_group_exchange_sha256 dh_group_exchange_sha1 ecdh_sha2_nistp256 ecdh_sha2_nistp384 ecdh_sha2_nistp521 sm2_kep} 3. Configure encryption algorithm ssh server cipher { aes256_ctr aes128_ctr aes256_cbc aes128_cbc 3des_cbc } 4. Configure HMAC algorithm ssh server hmac { md5 | md5_96 | sha1 | sha1_96 | sha2_256 | sha2_256_96 } 5.…
