Building IP Masks: Configuring one station per Authorized Manager IP entry
The IP Mask parameter controls how the switch uses an Authorized Manager IP value to recognize the IP addresses of authorized manager stations on your network.
This is the easiest way to apply a mask. If you have ten or fewer management and operator stations, you can configure them by adding the address of each to the Authorized Manager IP list with
255.255.255.255 for the corresponding mask. For example, as shown in
Show authorized-managers command with access method configured, if you configure an IP address of
10.28.227.125 with an IP mask of
255.255.255.255, only a station having an IP address of
10.28.227.125 has management access to the switch.
