The following shows how to specify the httpsd.conf file:
<Location /DeviceManager>
order allow,deny
allow from management-client [management-client...]
</Location>
Hosts can be written in the following formats:
The domain name (example:hp.com)
Part of the domain name (example: hp)
The whole IPv4 and IPv6 address (example: 10.1.2.3 127.0.0.1
2001::123:4567:89ab:cdef)
Part of the IPv4 address (example: 10.1 which, in this case, means 10.1.0.0/16)
IPv4 Network/Netmask format (example: 10.1.0.0/255.255.0.0)
IPv4 and IPv6 Network/c (CIDR notation: c is a decimal integer that indicates the number
of bits for identifying a network) (example: 10.1.0.0/16 2001:0:0:1230::/64)
If you want to specify multiple management clients in a command line for allow from, delimit
the hosts with a space.
Multiple lines can be used to specify hosts for allow from.
If you attempt to connect from a computer which has Device Manager installed, you must also
specify the local loop-back address (127.0.0.1 or localhost).
Be sure to specify order in accordance with the specified format. If extra spaces or tabs are
inserted, operation will fail.
The following example shows how to register management clients in the httpsd.conf file:
<Location /DeviceManager>
order allow,deny
allow from 127.0.0.1 10.0.0.1 2001::123:4567:89ab:cdef
allow from 10.1.0.0/16 2001:0:0:1230::/64
</Location>
5. Register information about the management clients in the
server.http.security.clientIP or server.http.security.clientIPv6 property.
6. Start the XP Command View AE Suite services and Common Component.
In Windows:
Select Start > All Programs > XP Command View AE > Device Manager > Start Server
with Common Services.
In Linux:
Execute the following command:
installation-directory-for-Common-Component/bin/hcmdssrv –start
7. If XP Command View AE Suite products whose versions are earlier than 5.7 is installed, start
their services as required.
For details about how to start these services, see the manual for your product version.
CAUTION: If you log on to an XP Command View AE Suite product from a management client
that is not registered in the httpsd.conf file, the Device Manager server cannot be started from
that XP Command View AE Suite product.
