Configuring network access

Specify which IP addresses can access the server.

1. On the ASMI Welcome pane, specify your user ID and password, and click Log In.
2. In the navigation area, expand Network Services.
3. Select Network Access. In the right pane, the IP address field displays the IP address of the server that your browser is running on and that connects to the ASMI.
   Note: On systems running system firmware Ex340 or later, you will be asked to select IPv4 or IPv6 before proceeding to the network configuration screen. If IPv6 is selected, the instructions below can still be generally followed.
4. Specify up to 16 addresses each for the list of allowed addresses and the list of denied addresses. ALL is a valid IP address.

   If a login is received from an IP address that matches a complete or partial IP address in the allowed list, access to the service processor is granted. Access to the service processor is not allowed if a login is received from an IP address that matches a complete or partial IP address from the denied list.

   Note: The allowed list takes priority over the denied list, and an empty denied list is ignored. ALL is not allowed in the denied list if the allowed list is empty.
5. Click Save settings to validate the data.
