SNMP IP Access List
You can use the
SNMP IP Access List
to create an extra level of security in addition
to the read an read/write passwords. This will allow you to authorize a limited
number of LAN administrator stations to view and/or modify the configuration
of the Access Points, based upon the IP address of these stations.
The field
SNMP IP Access List
should typically include the IP address of all LAN
administrator stations that will use the AP Manager to configure and/or monitor
your Access Points.
To authorize the LAN administrator station you must enter:
■
The IP address of the station(s), and
■
The Access Point network interface through which they will access the
Access Point.
To indicate the interface, use either:
■
“1” for ethernet
■
“2” for the wireless network interface in socket A, or
■
“3” for the wireless network interface in socket B (for WL510 Access Point
only),
Alternatively you can use the value “x” to allow the identified IP address to
access the Access Point via any of the available interfaces.
To allow multiple LAN administrator stations to access the Access Point
configuration and/or monitor parameters, you can also assign a range of IP
addresses. Doing so, enter a subnet mask value that will indicate the subnet from
which all stations are authorized to modify the SNMP setup.
Ethernet Interface
Subject to the type of interface offered by your Access Point, you can select one
of the options (see Figure ).
