AP Management
The Web, Telnet, and SNMP management interfaces are enabled and open to all IP
addresses by default. To provide more security for management access to the
access point, specific interfaces can be disabled and management restricted to a
single IP address or a limited range of IP addresses.
Once you specify an IP address or range of addresses, access to management
interfaces is restricted to the specified addresses. If anyone tries to access a
management interface from an unauthorized address, the access point will reject the
connection.
UI Management – Enables or disables management access through Telnet, the Web
(HTTP), or SNMP interfaces. (Default: Enabled)
Note: Secure Web (HTTPS) connections are not affected by the UI Management or IP
Management settings.
IP Management – Restricts management access to Telnet, Web, and SNMP
interfaces to specified IP addresses. (Default: Any IP)
• Any IP: Indicates that any IP address is allowed management access.
• Single IP: Specifies a single IP address that is allowed management access.
• Multiple IP: Specifies an address range as defined by the entered IP address and
subnet mask. For example, IP address 192.168.1.6 and subnet mask
255.255.255.0, defines all IP addresses from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254.
