Each IP address and netmask must consist of four octets with values between 0 and 255
(the same for each netmask).
•
Netmasks must start with the number 1 in the highest bit and continue with all number
1s until they switch to all number 0s, for example: 255.255.0.0, 192.0.0.0, 255.192.0.0.

IP Restricted Login
The IP Restricted Login enables the HP System Management Homepage (HP SMH) to restrict
log-in access based on the
of a system from which the log in is attempted.
For Linux and Windows, you can set a restricted address at installation time. From all operating
systems, administrators can set a restricted address from the IP Restricted Login page.
•
If an IP address is excluded, it is excluded even if it is also listed in the included box.
•
If there are IP addresses in the inclusion list, then only those IP addresses are allowed log-in
access with the exception of localhost.
•
If no IP addresses are in the inclusion list, then log-in access is allowed to any IP addresses
not in the exclusion list.
To restrict IP addresses:
1.
Click Settings
→System Management Homepage→Security.
2.
Click IP Restricted Login.
3.
Select the IP Restricted Login box to enable restricted login.
4.
Enter the IP addresses to exclude.
5.
Enter the IP addresses to include.
