Using Authorized IP Managers

Options

You can configure:

■ Up to 10 authorized manager addresses, where each address applies to

either a single management station or a group of stations

■ Manager or Operator access privileges (for Telnet, SNMPv1, and

SNMPv2c access only)

Caution Configuring Authorized IP Managers does not protect access to the switch

through a modem or direct connection to the Console (RS-232) port. Also, if

an unauthorized station “spoofs” an authorized IP address, it can gain man-

agement access to the switch even though a duplicate IP address condition

exists. For these reasons, you should enhance your network’s security by

keeping physical access to the switch restricted to authorized personnel, using

the username/password and other security features available in the switch,

and preventing unauthorized access to data on your management stations.

Access Levels

Note The Authorized IP Manager feature can assign an access level to stations using

Telnet, SNMPv1, or SNMPv2c for switch access. The access level the switch

allows for authorized stations using SSH, SNMPv3, or the web browser

interface is determined by the access application itself, and not by the Autho-

rized IP Manager feature.

For each authorized manager address using Telnet, SNMPv1, or SNMPv2c, you

can configure either of these access levels:

■ Manager: Enables full access to all web browser and console interface

screens for viewing, configuration, and all other operations available in

these interfaces.

■ Operator: Allows read-only access from the web browser and console

interfaces. (This is the same access that is allowed by the switch’s opera-

tor-level password feature.)
