Chapter 37: Management Access Control List
652 Section IX: Management Security
Enabling or Disabling the Management ACL
This procedure enables and disables the management ACL. When
enabled, only those management stations specified in the ACL are
allowed to manage the switch remotely using the Telnet application
protocol or a web browser. When the feature is disabled, the management
software on the switch can be accessed remotely from any management
workstation.
Note
Do not activate the management ACL until you have specified the
access control entries (ACEs). Otherwise, the switch will discard all
remote management packets, making it impossible for you to
remotely manage the unit from a Telnet or web browser
management session. For instructions on how to add ACEs, refer to
“Creating an ACE” on page 654.
To enable or disable the Management ACL, perform the following
procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.
The System Administration menu is shown in Figure 1 on page 32.
2. From the System Administration menu, type 7 to select Management
ACL.
The Management ACL Configuration menu is shown in Figure 244.

3. Type 1 to select Management ACL Status and toggle the selection to
either Enabled or Disabled. The default setting is disabled.
