46UPS Network Management Card 2 User’s Guide

Access Control. You can configure up to four access control entries to specify which Network Management

Systems (NMSs) have access to the NMC. To edit, click a user name.

By default one entry is assigned to each of the four user profiles. You can edit these settings to apply more than

one entry to any one user profile to grant access by several specific IP addresses, host names, or IP address

masks.

• By default, all NMSs that use that profile have access to this device.

• If you configure multiple access control entries for one user profile, it means that one or more of the

other user profiles must have no access to this device.

User Name: From the drop-down list, select the user profile to which this access control entry will apply. The

choices available are the four user names that you configure through the “User Profiles” option.

NMS IP/Host Name: The IP address, IP address mask, or host name that controls access by the NMS. A host

name or a specific IP address (for example, 149.225.12.1) allows access only by the NMS at that location. An

IP address mask that contains 255 restricts access as follows:

• 149.225.12.255: Access only by an NMS on the 149.225.12 segment.

• 149.225.255.255: Access only by an NMS on the 149.225 segment.

• 149.255.255.255: Access only by an NMS on the 149 segment.

• 0.0.0.0 (the default setting) which can also be expressed as 255.255.255.255: Access by any NMS on

any segment.

FTP Server screen

Path: Configuration > Network > FTP Server

Use this screen to enable access to an FTP server and to specify a port.

Option Description

Access

FTP transmits files without encrypting them.

For encrypted file transfer, use Secure CoPy (SCP). SCP is automatically enabled when you

enable SSH, but you must disable the FTP Server here to enforce high-security file transfer.

Note: At any time that you want a device to be accessible for management by InfraStruXure

Central or Manager, FTP Server must be enabled in the Network Management Card interface of

that UPS.

For detailed information on enhancing and managing the security of your system, see the

Security Handbook, available on the Utility CD or from the APC

Web site.

Port

The TCP/IP port of the FTP server (21 by default).

The FTP server uses both the specified port and the port one number lower. The allowed non-

default port numbers are indicated on the screen: 21, and 5001–32768.

Note: Configuring the FTP server to use a non-default port enhances security by requiring users

to append the port name to the IP address in an FTP command line. The appended port name

must be preceded by a space or colon depending on the FTP client used.
