IMPLEMENTING IP SECURITY
The Dual-Port Network Power Switch can be configured to restrict unauthorized IP addresses from telneting to the unit. This allows you to grant Telnet access to only a specific group of IP addresses, or block a particular IP address from gaining access. In the default state, the Dual-Port Network Power Switch accepts incoming IP connections from all hosts.
