A user has just purchased a generic home router and would like to secure it. What should be done to help secure the wireless home router?
- Change the default SSID.
- Set a private IPv4 network for the internal network.
- Allow only IPv6 traffic to enter the router.
- Change the default administrator password.
Explanation: The home router allows a designated administrator to manage the network. Anyone who knows the account username and password can log into the router itself, which grants complete access to the features of the device and information about any devices that are connected. Most router manufacturers configure their new routers with the same default username and password and thus changing the default administrator password is a step towards securing the home router.
