Would you also not block this at the firewall on individual nodes: if you block incoming incoming UDP on port 631 that would at least eliminate one of the two entry points, right?
There is no detail in the article about the other.
- tsimionescu 2y agoThe port has to be open on the node for the functionality to work - the whole point is that printers on the same LAN can auto-register. If you don't want that, disabling cups-browsed is much safer than just relying on the firewall. If you do want that, you can't firewall the port at all.
