Accessible IP
The TN-5500 uses an IP address-based filtering method to control access.
You may add or remove IP addresses to limit access to the TN-5500. When the accessible IP list is enabled, only
addresses on the list will be allowed access to the TN-5500. Each IP address and netmask entry can be tailored
for different situations:
• Grant access to one host with a specific IP address
For example, enter IP address 192.168.1.1 with netmask 255.255.255.255 to allow access to 192.168.1.1
only.
• Grant access to any host on a specific subnetwork
For example, enter IP address 192.168.1.0 with netmask 255.255.255.0 to allow access to all IPs on the
subnet defined by this IP address/subnet mask combination.
• Grant acces to all hosts
Make sure the accessible IP list is not enabled. Remove the checkmark from Enable the accessible IP
list.
The following table shows additional configuration examples:
