The IP Restricted Login enables the HP System Management Homepage (HP SMH) to restrict log-in access based on the IP address of a system from which the log in is attempted.

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

  • If an IP address is excluded, it is excluded even if it is also listed in the included box.

  • If there are IP addresses in the inclusion list, then only those IP addresses are allowed log-in access with the exception of localhost.

  • If no IP addresses are in the inclusion list, then log-in access is allowed to any IP addresses not in the exclusion list.

To restrict IP addresses:

  1. Click SettingsSystem Management HomepageSecurity.

  2. Click IP Restricted Login.

  3. Select the IP Restricted Login box to enable restricted login.

  4. Enter the IP addresses to exclude.

  5. Enter the IP addresses to include.

  6. Click [Save Configuration] to save the current configurations, or click [Reset Values] to cancel all changes.

    If [Save Configuration] is clicked, the following message appears:

    Setting this value requires restarting the HP System Management Homepage which may require you to log in again.

  7. Click [OK].
