Authorized managers
This feature is available in MNS-6K-SECURE.

addresses to access the switch. The command used for that is
Syntax
access
– access configuration mode
Syntax
allow ip=<ipaddress> mask=<netmask> service=<name|list>
- authorize
managers
Syntax
deny ip=<ipaddress> mask=<netmask> service=<name|list>
- deny access
to a specific IP address(s) or a subnet
Syntax
remove ip=<ipaddress> mask=<netmask>
- remove specific IP address(s) or
subnet
Syntax
removeall
- remove all managers
Syntax
show ip-access
– display list of authorized managers
access
– context are the access commands
allow
– allow specified services for specified IP addresses – IP addresses can be individual
stations, a group of stations or subnets. The range is determined by the IP address and
