Controlling Access to Access Point Menus
There are several ways that you can manage who can configure and
manage the access points in your network:
Enable/disable access methods.
Set up individual logins.
Change the default logins and create a read-only login.
The next sections explain how to implement these strategies.
Enabling Access
Methods
There are five access methods that you can enable or disable depending
on how you want users to be able to configure or manage the access
points:
Web browser interface (HTTP or HTTPS)
Telnet session
Any SNMP management station
TFTP
Programs that uses ICMP echo
Wavelink Avalanche client management system
All access methods are enabled by default. You may want to disable any
of these methods that you will not use to prevent access by an
unauthorized method.
