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 covers access through the following means:

– Telnet and other terminal emulation applications

– The switch’s web browser interface

– SSH

– SNMP versions 1, 2 and 3(with a correct community name)

– TFTP

Also, when configured in the switch, the Authorized IP Managers feature takes

precedence over local passwords, TACACS+, RADIUS, Port-Based Access

Control (802.1X), and Port Security. This means that the IP address of a

networked management device must be authorized before the switch will

attempt to authenticate the device by invoking any other access security

features. If the Authorized IP Managers feature disallows access to the device,

then access is denied. Thus, with authorized IP managers configured, having

the correct passwords is not sufficient for accessing the switch through the

network unless the station attempting access is also included in the switch’s

Authorized IP Managers configuration.

You can use Authorized IP Managers along with other access security features

to provide a more comprehensive security fabric than if you use only one or

two security options.

Note When no Authorized IP manager rules are configured, the access method

feature is disabled, that is, access is not denied.
