IPv6 Management Security Features
This chapter describes management security features that are IPv6 counter-
parts of IPv4 management security features on the switches covered by this
guide.
This chapter describes the following IPv6-enabled management security
features:
■ Authorized IP Managers for IPv6
■ Secure Shell for IPv6
■ Secure Copy and Secure FTP for IPv6
Authorized IP Managers for IPv6
The Authorized IP Managers feature uses IP addresses and masks to deter-
mine which stations (PCs or workstations) can access the switch through the
network. This feature supports switch access through:
■ Telnet and other terminal emulation applications
■ Web browser interface
■ SNMP (with a correct community name)
As with the configuration of IPv4 management stations, the Authorized IP
Managers for IPv6 feature allows you to specify the IPv6-based stations that
can access the switch.
Usage Notes
■ Up to ten authorized IPv4 and IPv6 manager addresses can be configured
on a switch, where each address applies to either a single management
station or a group of stations. Each authorized manager address consists
of an IPv4 or IPv6 address and a mask that determines the individual
management stations that are allowed access.
