Allowed Managers
Allowed Managers Introduction
With the Allowed Managers feature, the network manager can determine who may or may not
gain management access to the switch. The feature can be enabled or disabled (default is
disabled). When enabled, only those stations that are configured in the Allowed Managers table
are able to gain Telnet, HTTP, and SNMP management access to the switch.
You can configure up to 20 Allowed Managers by adding or removing their IP address from the
Allowed Managers List.
Tip:
Tip:
The identification of an "Allowed Manager" is done by checking the Source
IP address of the packets. Thus, if the Source IP address is modified on the way
(NAT, Proxy, etc.), even an "Allowed Manager" will not be able to access the
C360.
