Syntax

[no] management {all-client http-client snmp-client telnet-client}start-address[end-address]

•all-client- Adds IP address(es) to the SNMP, web and Telnet groups.

•http-client- Adds IP address(es) to the web group.

•snmp-client- Adds IP address(es) to the SNMP group.

•telnet-client- Adds IP address(es) to the Telnet group.

•start-address- A single IP address, or the starting address of a range.

•end-address- The end address of a range.

Default Setting

All addresses

Command Mode

Global Configuration

Command Usage

•If anyone tries to access a management interface on the switch from an invalid address, the switch will reject the connection, enter an event message in the system log, and send a trap message to the trap manager.

•IP address can be configured for SNMP, web and Telnet access respectively. Each of these groups can include up to five different sets of addresses, either individual addresses or address ranges.

•When entering addresses for the same group (i.e., SNMP, web or Telnet), the switch will not accept overlapping address ranges. When entering addresses for different groups, the switch will accept overlapping address ranges.

•You cannot delete an individual address from a specified range. You must delete the entire range, and reenter the addresses.
