Important Considerations
CAUTION: Be careful when you define trusted IP clients. If you specify an
incorrect IP address or subnetwork address when you define a trusted IP
client, you can affect your own ability to access the system. See the
Implementation Guide for your system.
■
Configure trusted IP clients in this order:
■
Define the trusted IP clients using
system console security
define
.
■
Display the list of configured trusted IP clients using
system
console security display
to verify that you have configured the
trusted IP clients correctly.
■
Enable the system to verify trusted IP clients using
system console
security access
.
■
You can configure up to five IP addresses or five subnetwork addresses
as trusted IP clients.
■
An IP address or subnetwork address can be used to access the system
only if it is on the trusted IP client list.
■
Use the subnet mask to allow trusted access to all addresses on a
particular subnetwork. Examples: The IP address 158.99.112.219
with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 allows trusted access to all
addresses on the 158.99.112 subnetwork. The IP address
158.99.112.219 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 allows
access only by the single IP address 158.99.112.219.
■
The trusted IP client information is retained after a system reboot; that
is, it is saved in nvData.
