•Source IP subnet
Management access can be separately defined for the following types of
management access methods:
• Telnet (CLI over Telnet sessions)
• Secure Telnet (SSH)
•Web (HTTP)
• Secure Web (HTTPS)
•SNMP
This means, for example, that the set of managers allowed via Telnet may be
different than the set of Web-based managers which is, in turn, may be
different than the set of secure-web based managers, and so on.
A specific management access method may be completely disabled by
denying all user access to it (e.g. denying all users access to CLI/Telnet
management effectively disables CLI/Telnet as an available management
interface to the system).
By default, management access to the system, through all methods, is
enabled over all interfaces.
NOTE: If you enable management access on certain types of interfaces, the
following holds:.
• Physical Port — All VLANs and IP interfaces on this port are acceptable
management traffic sources.
• VLAN — All ports and IP interfaces on that VLAN will be acceptable.
• Specific IP Address — Only traffic from these specified IP addresses on the
appropriate ports are accepted.
Access Profiles and Rules
A management access profile is composed of at least one rule, which acts as a
filter, and defines the device management method, interface type, source IP
address, network mask, and the profile action.
Users can be blocked or permitted management access by these access
profiles.
