AP Networking Lab: Audit a Device's Security Settings | Topic 1.4

Audit a device you were just handed

A device nobody documented, an audit folder, and one setting that is still exactly what it was in the box. Eight checks, and the seventh is where the lab turns.

Everything runs in this page. The filesystem is simulated, so you can open anything you can reach and read it as many times as you like.

The live configuration files are not the whole device. A working config tells you what the machine does today; it does not tell you what else is still sitting on it. Keep looking after the obvious files have been read.

Sign in first if this is for a grade. The lab runs either way, but it can only save your score when you are signed in to your class.
