Configuring Network IP Filtering

It is also possible to enable or disable specific services of the Digi CM:

Telnet console

(TCP/IP port 23)

SSH console

(TCP/IP port 22)

Web configuration

(TCP/IP port 80)

Interface - The interface is the name of the network interface via which a packet is received. It can be one of these three values:

eth0 : the default Ethernet interface of the Digi CM

eth1 : the secondary interface added by using a PC card or wireless card

all : both interfaces

Option - The Option determines that this rule will be applied to the IP address/ Mask specified or to its inverse -meaning the rule will be applied to all except those specified.

Normal : applied to the hosts included

Invert : applied to the hosts excluded

IP address/Mask - The IP address/Mask specifies the host range by entering base host IP address followed by “/” and subnet mask. The host range can be one of the following scenarios by changing the value:

Only one host of a specific IP address

Hosts on a specific subnet

Any host

Specified host range

Input format

 

 

Any host

0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0

 

 

192.168.1.120

192.168.1.120/255.255.255.255

 

 

192.168.1.1 ~ 192.168.1.254

192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0

 

 

192.168.0.1 ~ 192.168.255.254

192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0

 

 

192.168.1.1 ~ 192.168.1.126

192.168.1.0/255.255.255.128

 

 

192.168.1.129 ~ 192.168.1.254

192.168.1.128/255.255.255.128

 

 

Port - A TCP/IP Port on the Digi CM that other hosts try to access. The port can be specified using a single value or a range of ports in the form of: port1:port2, where port1 defines the lowest port and port2 the highest port.
