Security Settings
Allowed Remote Host IPs:
The WebMux Web Management Administrative Console only allow logins from these IP
addresses to establish a management session. You can allow access from more than one IP
address by specifying all the allowed IP addresses separated by a “:” (except use “,” as divider
for IPv6 addresses). You can put the netmask following the IP address to specify the range of
hosts that can access the management console. For example, 192.168.12.0/24 will allow all
hosts in 192.168.12 network to access it. From version 6.4.00, 192.168.12 will be allowed for
Class C allowed host. If this field is left blank, you can access the Web Management
Administrative Console from any IP address that is configured. It is recommended to set this up
for security reasons. If the wrong IP addresses are entered, the Web Management
Administrative Console login might not be possible.
Use the setup mode on the LCD panel to clear the allowed host list. This field is blank by
default.
Server Configuration:
The WebMux allows you to control the user/passwords for the “superuser” group logins with a
server so that password changes can be administered to several WebMux machines
instantly through a central authentication server. In this field you will need to specify the
server IP with “server=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.” Other arguments include “secret=” (if the
server requires a password to be accessed) and “encrypt.” Each argument must be
separated with a space.
If for some reason the server is not working, the WebMux will default back to the
passwords configured in its password setup screen.
LDAP server IPv4 URL
Access to the WebMux GUI or CLI can be authenticated by an OpenLDAP server. Enter the
LDAP location as a URL, such as ldap://192.168.12.1:389.
