Configuring IP Authorized Managers for the Switch

Syntax:

ip authorized-managers <ip address>

[mask <mask-bits>]
<operator | manager>

To Authorize Manager Access.

This command authorizes manager-level

access for any station having an IP address of 10.28.227.0 through
10.28.227.255:

SMC TigerSwitch 10/100

(conf

ig

)# ip authorized-managers

10.28.227.101 mask 255.255.255.0 manager

Similarly, the next command authorizes manager-level access for any station
having an IP address of 10.28.227.101 through 103:

SMC TigerSwitch 10/100

(config)# ip authorized-managers

10.28.227.101 mask 255.255.255.252 manager

If you omit the mask when adding a new authorized manager, the switch
automatically uses 255.255.255.255 for the mask. If you do not specify
either Manager or Operator access, the switch automatically assigns the
Manager access. For example:

SMC TigerSwitch 10/100

2(config)# ip authorized-managers

10.28.227.105

The result of entering the above example is:

Authorized Station IP Address: 10.28.227.105

IP Mask: 255.255.255.255, which authorizes only the specified station
(10.28.227.105 in this case). (See “Configuring Multiple Stations Per
Authorized Manager IP Entry” on page 7-35.)

Access Level: Manager

To Edit an Existing Manager Access Entry.

To change the mask or

access level for an existing entry, use the entry’s IP address and enter the new
value(s). (Notice that any parameters not included in the command will be set
to their default.):

SMC TigerSwitch 10/100

(config)# ip authorized-managers

10.28.227.101 mask 255.255.255.0 operator

The above command replaces the existing mask and access level for IP
address 10.28.227.101 with 255.255.255.0 and operator.
