Shielding network Setup tips to ensure network parameters security

Management and maintenance of the local area network is a very annoying thing, because the network administrator will often face such a problem, that is, set up their own LAN parameters, was modified by other people, resulting in the network can not connect normally, after the failure, they must also be a failure of the computer to be carefully excluded,

Until the fault is resolved again; it is obvious that this kind of network setting permissions completely open up the practice, not only will increase the maintenance workload of the staff, but also greatly reduce the maintenance efficiency; In order to improve the maintenance efficiency of the LAN, and avoid other people arbitrarily to set the network parameters, we should take measures to prohibit others to set network parameters, Here are some tips for masking network settings:

One, hide the Network Neighborhood

You know, right click on the Network Neighborhood icon, and then from the pop-up right-click menu, select the "Properties" command can open the Networking Parameters Settings dialog box, the network parameters are set. To do this, we can get to the point where the Network-Neighborhood Properties dialog box is blocked by hiding the "Network Places" icon so that other people cannot set up the networking parameters:

1, first open the Start menu, and select the Run command, and then in the pop-up Run dialog box, enter the regedit command, so the system will open a Registry Editor operation window;

2, in this window, we can use the mouse to access the key value Hkey_current_usersoftwaremicrosoftwindowscurrentversionpoliciesexplorer;

3, then in the corresponding Explorer key value to the right of the Operation window, you can use the left mouse button to click the window in the blank, from the pop-up shortcut menu, access to the "new"/"DWORD string value" command;

4. In the Open DWORD string Setting box, you must name the new DWORD string as Nonethood and set the value to 1 (hexadecimal);

5, set all the parameters, restart the computer can make the settings effective.

Two, hide the network icon

To open the Network Parameters Settings dialog box, in addition to the properties of the online neighborhood command to achieve the goal, you can also use the Control Panel "Network" icon to access the Network Parameters Settings dialog box, we must prohibit other users to the "network" icon access:

1. Locate the Run command in the Windows system's Start menu and enter "Control.ini" in the running dialog box that pops up later.

2, then the system will start Notepad program, to open the system file Control.ini, in the file [don ' t load] settings section, we enter "netcpl.cpl=no" such characters;

3, after the input is finished, save the file, and restart the computer can hide the control panel of the "Network" icon.

Third, disable Network Neighborhood properties

If you do not want to hide the desktop on the Internet, there is also a way to prevent users from the "Network Neighborhood" icon to open the Internet Properties dialog box, the way is to make "Network Neighborhood" invalid, the following is the specific steps:

1, you know, because the corresponding "Network Neighborhood" icon of the file is C:windowssystem under the netcpl.cpl, so access to "Network Neighborhood" is actually access to the file, to make "Network Neighborhood" invalid, Just remove netcpl.cpl or rename netcpl.cpl;

2, everyone as long as the netcpl.cpl move other folders, or the netcpl.cpl to save the name of another file name, so that when we visit the "Network Neighborhood", the system in C:windowssystem can not find netcpl.cpl files, and thus can not open " Network Places Properties dialog box.

Four, cancel network access rights

With a careful analysis of several of the methods mentioned above, it's not hard to see that these methods are almost always done in a hidden way, but if the user finds a file that corresponds to the "Network Neighborhood" or "Internet" icon, it can also open the Network Properties dialog box; So to achieve a real ban, We should modify the registry to remove user access to Network properties: 1, first open the Start menu and click the Run command, and then in the pop-up Run dialog box, enter the registry edit command regedit, to open the Registry editing window, 2, then the left mouse button click Hkey_ Current_usersoftwaremicrosoftwindowscurrentversionpoliciesnetwork 3, in the right window of the corresponding network key value, check to see if there is a "nonetsetup" Such a DWORD value, if you do not create a new one, and set the DWORD value to 1; 4, click the Confirm button to exit the Registry editing dialog and restart the computer, and when you visit the Network Places or networks icon again, the system warns users that they do not have access to the network. So the user will naturally have no chance to modify the network settings.
