Restricting access to the WebAdmin
Using the WebAdmin configuration file
To restrict access to the WebAdmin, you can use the two keywords,
allow
or
deny
, in your
streamingadminserver.conf
.
For example, at the end of the file, add the following:
allow=192.168.105.187 127.0.0.1
deny=192.168.105.113
This allows access to the WebAdmin from local host and
192.168.105.187 and explicitly denies it from 192.168.105.113.
Using the WebAdmin user interface
You can restrict access to the WebAdmin by using a login screen. The user
will have to provide a user name and password to connect to the
WebAdmin.
1. Using a web browser, connect to the WebAdmin (see “WebAdmin” on
page 17).
2. Click on the
Server Configuration>General Settings
menu item.
3. Select the
Authentication for the web admin
check box to restrict access
to the WebAdmin, then click the
Save changes
button. You will be
disconnected from theWebAdmin.
