Is there any way to secure the NETCONF port 830 on the management port. I have used an access list for the VTY, but it seems that does not cover port 830. In the past few weeks, I've had a few brute force attacks on that port. Anyway to disable or secure it?
Hi, thanks for choosing Dell. Could you block SSH users using ACL in OS10 so that only permitted user will be allowed and rest of the people will not be allowed in ide the switch via SSH?
What port is NETCONF?
“It uses Secure Shell (SSH) as the transport layer across network devices. It uses SSH port number 830 as the default port. The port number is a configurable option. NETCONF also supports capability discovery and model downloads.”

If your switch is still on warranty you may want to contact phone support. They can extract the log and check if there is any security configuration going on that would prevent such configuration.
Thank you for that link, but that is where I started before I posted this message. I've also done many google searches, but can't find anything about disabling or doing an ACL on port 830 on the management port. Seems like a security issue waiting to happen.
