Hi all, Can someone clarify this for me re IOS default services... As stated in the NSA router security guideline, services enabled by default can depend on the IOS version (ie small services is enabled by default on 11.2 but disabled on 11.3). This will not necesasarily be shown in the config...However it also stated that SNMP is enabled by default on 12.0 (and up ?)... Now without portscanning and if it is not show to be turned on in the config how does one know if it is enabled or not.... I know that you should explicitly disable the services, but for my own knowledge is there an URL that can say exactly which IOS version and services are enabled by default?
