DESCRIPTION

Services

Services you may use to access the Switch are listed here.

Active

Select this option for the corresponding services that you want to allow to access the

Switch.

Service Port

For Telnet, SSH, FTP, HTTP or HTTPS services, you may change the default service

port by typing the new port number in the Server Port field. If you change the default

port number then you will have to let people (who wish to use the service) know the

new port number for that service.

Timeout

Type how many minutes a management session (via the web configurator) can be left

idle before the session times out. After it times out you have to log in with your

password again. Very long idle timeouts may have security risks.

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch loses

these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top

navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done

configuring.

Cancel

Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.

DESCRIPTION

Entry

This is the client set index number. A “client set” is a group of one or more “trusted

computers” from which an administrator may use a service to manage the Switch.

Active

Select this check box to activate this secured client set. Clear the check box if you

wish to temporarily disable the set without deleting it.

Start Address
End Address

Configure the IP address range of trusted computers from which you can manage this

Switch.
The Switch checks if the client IP address of a computer requesting a service or

protocol matches the range set here. The Switch immediately disconnects the

session if it does not match.
