Define IP Access List
NOTE
The IP access list does not pre- vent unauthorized users from accessing switch management through the serial port.
Description
Users with IP addresses defined on the access list can manage the switch. If user names and passwords are set up, the user must also enter a valid user name and password when accessing the console. If you do not create an access list, any user with a valid user name and password can manage the switch. The IP access list provides a second level of security beyond that of a user name and password.
If you create an access list, the first address you add must be the one from which you are accessing the switch. Only users with IP addresses defined on the access list can ping the switch.
The IP access list can contain up to eight IP addresses.
Action: Specifies whether you want to add or delete an IP address. Press zto toggle between <Add> and <Delete>.
IP address: Type the IP address you want to add or delete from the access list and then press E. The IP access list can contain up to eight IP addresses.
