I want to say that Telnet is outdated for secure configurations, but I can't remember if HTTPS is the right choice here.

I feel like FTP is definitely not secure, but I can't recall if HTTPS is used for device configuration or just for web traffic.

I've got this! The answer is HTTPS. It's the secure version of HTTP, which is commonly used for web traffic, but HTTPS is the go-to for securely managing network devices.

Okay, let me think this through. HTTPS is definitely the most secure option here, but I should double-check that it's actually used for configuring network devices specifically.
