ErrDisable System Settings
Use this window to configure the global ErrDisable settings.
Switch Protected Mode
Protected Mode settings allow the SmartConnect administrator to block the management sys-
tem from making configuration changes that affect SmartConnect operation. The SmartCon-
nect retains control over those functions.
The following management system functions are disabled when Protected Mode is turned on:
Local control of external management
(External Ports: Enabled/Disabled)
Local control of external ports
(External management over all ports: Enabled/Disabled)
Local control of factory default reset
(Restore Factory Defaults)
Local control of Management VLAN interface
(New Static IP Configuration)
Note – Before you turn on Protected Mode, you must configure an IP interface to use for local
SmartConnect management: System Settings > Global > Switch IP Interface.
To configure Protected Mode, enable the functions for which you wish to secure local control,
and set Local Protected Mode to on.
In this release, configuration of the functions listed above are restricted to the local SmartCon-
nect when set Protected Mode to on. In future releases, individual control over each function
may be added.
