CHAPTER 5: Configuration
NOTES
Mask 5 has priority over the other four masks. If mask 5 is set to deny
access by “255.255.255.255” (all wild cards), you can’t access the IPS
command mode via network. Access is only allowed via a local PC or an
external modem connected to the IPS console port.
When using the wild card address “255.255.255.255,” make certain that
at least one higher priority mask permits access by your IP address.
