Login String
The Login String entry field is used to specify a login string (in addition to the
IP address) that users must include when accessing the Power Over the NET™
device with a browser. For example:
192.168.0.126/abcdefg
Š The following characters are allowed:
0–9 a–z A–Z ~ ! @ $ ^ & * ( ) _ + ‘ - = [ ] { } ; ’ < > , . |
Š The following characters are not allowed:
Š
% ” : / ? # \ [Space]
Š Compound characters (É Ç ñ ... etc.)
Note: 1. There must be a forward slash between the IP address and the string.
2. If no login string is specified here, anyone will be able to access the
Power Over the NET
TM
device login page using the IP address alone.
This makes your installation less secure.
For security purposes, we recommend that you change this string occasionally.
IP and MAC Filtering
If any filters have been configured, they appear in the IP Filter and/or MAC
Filter list boxes.
IP and MAC Filters control access to the Power Over the NET™ device based
on the IP and/or MAC addresses of the client computers attempting to connect.
A maximum of 100 IP filters and 100 MAC filters are allowed.
To enable IP and/or MAC filtering, click to put a check mark in the IP Filter
Enable and/or MAC Filter Enable checkbox.

Š
If the exclude button is checked, all the addresses within the filter range
are denied access; all other addresses are allowed access.
