7.6 Activating the IP access restriction
In the default setting, you access the device management from any IP address and with the
supported protocols.
The IP access restriction lets you restrict access to the device management to selected IP address
ranges and selected IP-based protocols.
Example:
The device is to be accessible only from the company network using the Graphical User Interface.
The administrator has additional remote access using SSH. The company network has the address
range
192.168.1.0/24
and remote access from a mobile network with the IP address range
109.237.176.0/24
. The SSH application program knows the fingerprint of the RSA key.
