By Jeffrey Jones News & Announcements January 16, 2013

Hi All,

In my last Video Demo, I exploited the Default SNMP String on a Cisco Router and gained access to the router. In this video, I have made it a little harder and changed the SNMP Community Strings to something else. I also changed the password. I used NMAP this time for the scan, Metasploit again and John the Ripper instead of Cain and Abel. Check it out. So the moral of the story is to “Don’t Use SNMP unless you absolutely have to and make sure that it is a complex text string.
