SENA STS Series - Manual (Page 31)

31
The user may allow a host or a group of hosts to access the STS Series for configuration. The user
must then enter the IP address and subnet of access. Any user on a remote host must stay in the
specified subnet boundary to have the configuration access.
To allow only a specific host to have configuration access to the STS Series, enter the IP address of
the specific host and just give 255.255.255.255 for the subnet.
To allow any hosts to have access to the STS Series, give 0.0.0.0 for both of the IP address and
subnet. Refer to Table 3-2 for more details. The device’s default settings for remote hosts allowed for
configuration is “Any”.

Web access also uses the IP filtering function, which can be enabled or disabled. The factory default
setting is “Enabled”. When enabled, the user can specify a web host or hosts allowed to access the
STS Series for configuration.
