We have finally arrived at a point where we can dig into the SAFE Blueprint itself. Up to now, we have focused on the material the Blueprint assumed you already knew and/or had available. Without that material fresh in your mind, many important aspects of the SAFE Blueprint would not have seemed reasonable. We'll start by covering the three network-management protocols important to securing a network: NTP, SNMP, and CDP.

The various network-management protocols have evolved along with everything else in networking. As a result, there have been several versions of each protocol we're going to discuss. Newer versions have more capabilities, and you should know which versions introduced significant new features, especially if those features are security related .
