This means, for example, that the set of managers allowed via Telnet may be

different than the set of Web-based managers which is, in turn, may be

different than the set of secure-web based managers, and so on.
A specific management access method may be completely disabled by

denying all user access to it (e.g. denying all users access to CLI/Telnet

management effectively disables CLI/Telnet as an available management

interface to the system).
By default, management access to the system, through all methods, is

enabled over all interfaces.

NOTE:

If you enable management access through a physical port, all VLANs and IP

interfaces on this port will be acceptable management traffic sources. If you enable

management access through a VLAN, all ports and IP interfaces on that VLAN will

be acceptable. If specific IP address(es) are specified, only traffic from these

specified IP addresses on the appropriate ports will be accepted.

Access Profiles Rules

Each management access profile is composed of at least one rule, which acts

as a filter, and defines the device management method, interface type, source

IP address, network mask, and the device management access action.
Users can be blocked or permitted management access.
Rule priority sets the order in which the rules are implemented. Assigning an

access profile to an interface denies access via other interfaces. If an access

profile is not assigned to any interface, the device can be accessed by all

interfaces.
A total of 256 rules can be defined for all Management Access profiles.
To add rules to existing access profiles, see "Profile Rules" on page 135.

Creating an Access Profile

To define an access profile with a single rule:

1 Click System > Management Security > Access Profiles in the tree view

to display the Access Profiles: Summary page.
The currently-defined access profiles are displayed.

2 To activate an access profile, select it in the Active Access Profile field.
