Security Profiles

A security profile defines a set of rules or conditions regarding a user’s access permissions and limits for accessing the BladeManager and its features. The Security Profiles feature allows the administrator to centrally create these rules for as many profiles as necessary. Each time a user requests a page, the system checks the security profile.

Security Profiles deal with IP filtering, VLAN restriction, time and date restrictions, and authorization rules that are applied to each user. The default rule of security profiles is Deny.

You can apply security profiles to users and user groups. The Default Profile is the profile of the default group, User. Whatever condition(s) you configure in the Default Profile is automatically applied to all users except Admin users. This profile cannot be deleted.

Note: To configure users and user groups, go to Users > Groups.

The Default Profile already allows users to log on. You may change it to block connections by default and then allow the valid users. If the chosen rule is Allow, you must select at least one action from the Authorization tab.
