CHAPTER 10: SECURITY SETTINGS 107
IP Access Control
Using IP Access Control, you can control access to your Dominion KX II unit. By setting a
global Access Control List (ACL) you are by ensuring that your device does not respond to
packets being sent from disallowed IP addresses. The IP Access Control is global, affecting the
KX unit as a whole, but you can also control access to your unit at the group level. Refer to
group-based IP Access Control for more information about group-level control.
Important: IP Address 127.0.0.1 is used by the Dominion KX II local port. When
creating an IP Access Control list, if 127.0.0.1 is within the range of IP
Addresses that are blocked, you will not
have access to the Dominion KX II
local port.
To use IP Access Control:
1. Open the IP Access Control page using one of these methods:
Select Security > IP Access Control, or
Click the Set System ACL button from the
Network Settings page
The IP Access Control page opens:
Figure 76: IP Access Control
2. Check the Enable IP Access Control checkbox to enable IP access control and the
remaining fields on the page.
3. Select the Default Policy. This is the action taken for IP addresses that are not within the
ranges you specify.
Accept. IP Addresses are allowed access to the Dominion KX II device.
Drop. IP Addresses are denied access to the Dominion KX II device.
