Chapter 8 User Authentication

Allowed Managers

With the Allowed Managers feature, the network manager can determine who may or may not gain management access to the switch. The feature can be enabled or disabled (default is disabled). When enabled, only those users that are configured in the Allowed Managers table are able to gain Telnet, HTTP, and SNMP management access to the switch.

You can configure up to 20 Allowed Mangers by adding or removing their IP address from the Allowed Managers List.

Note: The identification of an “Allowed Manager” is done by checking the Source IP address of the packets, thus if the Source IP address is modified on the way (NAT, Proxy, etc.), even an “Allowed Manager” will not be able to access the P330.
