Tait network monitoring tools support SNMP v3.

Core Tait network security

Core Tait network security

Remote access to the core Tait network is only via IP connection which operates via Secure Shell (SSH) utilizing encrypted traffic between the client and the server and via the Dell iDrac which also utilizes encrypted traffic (HTTPS). Display and menus on the Tait base station can be disabled to prevent non-authorized changes to the base station by those physically on site.
