IP Restricted login enables HP SMH to restrict login access based on the IP address of a system from which the signin is attempted.

For Linux and Windows, you can set a restricted address at installation. From all operating systems, administrators can set a restricted address from the IP Restricted login page. Note the following:

If an IP address is restricted, it is restricted even if it is also listed in the permitted box.
If IP addresses are in the permitted list, only those IP addresses can sign in, except for localhost.
If no IP addresses are in the permitted list, sign in access is allowed to any IP addresses not in the restricted list.

HP SMH on Windows and Linux supports IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.


NOTE:


	On systems operating on Windows operating system, the range of IPv6 addresses is valid with and without brackets. For example: Both [2001:db8:c18:1:250:8bff:fee2:5175]-[2001:db8:c18:1:250:8bff:fee2:5180] and 2001:db8:c18:1:250:8bff:fee2:5175-2001:db8:c18:1:250:8bff:fee2:5180 are valid conditions on systems running on Windows operating system.

To restrict IP addresses:

Select Settings from the menu
In the System Management Homepage box, click the Security link.
Click the IP Restricted Login link.
Enter the IP address or IP address range.
List IP address ranges beginning with the lower end of the range, followed by a hyphen, followed by the upper end of the range. The upper and lower bounds are considered part of the range.
IP address ranges and single addresses are separated by semicolons. IP address ranges for IPv4 should be entered in the format: 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.255. IP address ranges for IPv6 should be entered in the format: 2001:db8:c18:1:4c7d:fa25:ccf8:d30c-2001:db8:c18:1:4c7d:fa25:ccf8:d30f
Select the Restrict or Permit radio button.
Click [Add] to add the configurations.
Click [Apply] to apply the configurations.

To remove IP addresses from the list:

Select Settings from the menu.
In the System Management Homepage box, click the Security link.
Click the IP Restricted Login link.
Select the check box beside the IP addresses you want to remove.
Click [Remove].
Click [Apply] to apply the configurations.
