GSM Series User Manual

3-1-5. Management Security Configuration

The Management Security Configuration is used to implement security rules based on what type of management access a certain user has. The user management can be locked down so that only users that belong to a certain VLAN group or have a valid IP address in a predetermined range can access the switch’s management interfaces. Rules can also be created to allow access to management from certain switch ports only. Eg only port 5 has access to the switch’s management. Rules can then be broken down even further to allow particular management access to these VLAN groups, IP Ranges or Ports. We can specify whether we want to allow or deny access to the Web Management, Telnet or SNMP access.
