HP strongly recommends using the Trust by Certificate option because

the other options are less secure.

Click Next. The IP Binding page appears.

i.

IP Binding specifies from which IP addresses the

System Management Homepage

(SMH)

accepts requests and provides control over which nets and subnets requests are processed.

Administrators can configure the System Management Homepage to only bind to
addresses specified in the IP Binding page. A maximum of five subnet IP addresses
and netmasks can be defined.

An IP address on the server is bound if it matches one of the entered IP Binding addresses
after the mask is applied.

NOTE:

The System Management Homepage always binds to 127.0.0.1. If IP Binding

is enabled and no subnet/mask pairs are configured, then the System Management
Homepage is only available to 127.0.0.1. If IP Binding is not enabled, you bind to all
addresses.

To configure IP Binding:

1.

Select IP Binding. The IP Binding page appears.

2.

Enter the IP address.

3.

Enter the netmask.

4.

Click Add. The IP binding configuration is saved and appears under the IP Binding
List

Click Next. The IP Restricted Login page appears.

System Management Homepage

You can set address restriction at installation time or by it can be set by administrators
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
login access with the exception of

localhost.

If no IP addresses are in the inclusion list, then login access is allowed to any IP
addresses not in the exclusion list.

To include or exclude IP addresses:

1.

In the From field, enter the IP addresses to include or exclude. You can enter an IP
address range to be included or excluded by entering a beginning IP address in
the From field and an ending IP address in the To field.
