Security warning for anonymous user
Dell recommends the below options for center configuration:
● Use HTTPS communications instead of FTP or HTTP.
● For HTTPS connection, a certificate is required for more secure connection.
● Ensure that File Server directory access is limited to administrators.
● If you use FTP with anonymous user, a message is displayed. Same message is displayed in the event log also.
