14.2. Access check

For each network service implemented by the FB2500 (see Chapter 13), this command shows whether a specific IP address will be able to access or utilise the service, based on any access restrictions configured on the service.

For example, the following shows some service configurations (expressed in XML), and the access check result when checking access for an external address, 1.2.3.4 :-

  <http local-only="false"/>
Web control page access via http:-
This address is allowed access to web control pages subject to username/password being allowed.
  <telnet allow="admin-ips"
          local-only="false"/>
Telnet access:-
This address is not allowed access due to the allow list on telnet service.

(in this example, admin-ips is the name of an IP address group that does not include 1.2.3.4)

  <dns local-only="true"/>
DNS resolver access:-
This address is not on a local Ethernet subnet and so not allowed access.
