Avaya AP-4, AP-6, AP-5 manual IP Access Table

Management

IP Access Table

The Management IP Access table limits in-band management access to the IP addresses or range of IP addresses specified in the table. This feature applies to all management options (SNMP, HTTP, and CLI) except for CLI management over the serial port. To configure this table, click Add and set the following parameters:

•IP Address: Enter the IP Address for the management station.

•IP Mask: Enter a mask that will act as a filter to limit access to a range of IP Addresses based on the IP Address you already entered.

—The IP mask 255.255.255.255 would authorize the single station defined by the IP Address to configure the

Access Point. The AP would ignore commands from any other IP address. In contrast, the IP mask 255.255.255.0 would allow any device that shares the first three octets of the IP address to configure the AP. For example, if you enter an IP address of 10.20.30.1 with a 255.255.255.0 subnet mask, any IP address between 10.20.30.1 and 10.20.30.254 will have access to the AP’s management interfaces.

•Comment: Enter an optional comment, such as the station name.

To edit or delete an entry, click Edit. Edit the information, or select Enable, Disable, or Delete from the Status pull-down menu.
