•Management Station IP. Specify the IP address of the management station.

If either value (Management Station IP or Management Station IP Mask) is 0.0.0.0, access is allowed from any IP address. Otherwise, bitwise AND operations are performed between every client’s address and the mask, and between the management station IP address and the mask. If the values are equal, access is allowed. For example, if the management station IP and mask parameters are 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, any client whose address is 192.168.1.0 through 192.168.1.255 (inclusive) is allowed access. To allow access from only one station, use a Mask value of 255.255.255.255, and use that machine’s IP address for as the client address.
