Clear Allowed Host File?

Allowed host file prevents any unauthorized access to the WebMux™

Management Console. If a workstation’s IP address is not in the allowed host

file, that computer will not be able to reach the WebMux™ management console

through the network. However, sometimes a wrong IP address is entered so that

no computer can access the browser management console. At that point,

clearing the allowed host file will allow any browser to access it. By default, the

allowed host list is empty so that any IP address can access WebMux™. We do

encourage adding only host IP addresses that you do allow to manage

WebMux™ into the list. See configuration through browser interface for more

details.
