access

Use the “access” command to view and configure access control. You can also specify two or more access ranges.

IPv6 access mask configuration display

msh> access ID mask6

IPv4 configuration

msh> access ID range “start-address end-address”

Example: to specify accessible IPv4 addresses between 192.168.0.10 and 192.168.0.20:

msh> access 1 range 192.168.0.10 192.168.0.20

IPv6 configuration

msh> access ID range6 “start-address end-address”

Example: to specify accessible IPv6 addresses between 2001:DB8::100 and 2001:DB8::200.

msh> access 1 range6 2001:DB8::100 2001:DB8::200

IPv6 access mask configuration

msh> access ID mask6 “base-address prefixlen”

Example: to specify accessible IPv6 addresses to 2001:DB8::/32

msh> access 1 mask6 2001:DB8:: 32

Access control initialization

msh> access flush

  • Use the “flush” command to restore the default settings so that all access ranges become “0.0.0.0” for IPv4, and “::” for IPv6.

Note

  • You can specify each IPv6 entry by either range or mask. For the range parameter, you can select “start-address end-address”. For the mask parameter, you can select “baseaddress prefixlen”.

  • The access range restricts computers from use of the machine by IP address. If you do not need to restrict printing, make the setting “0.0.0.0” for IPv4, and “::” for IPv6.

  • Valid ranges must be from lower (start address) to higher (end address).

  • For IPv4 and IPv6, you can select an ID number between 1 and 5.

  • IPv6 can register and select the range and the mask for each access ranges.

  • IPv6 mask ranges between 1 - 128 can be selected.

  • Up to five access ranges can be specified. The entry is invalid if the target number is omitted.

  • You cannot send print jobs, or access Web Image Monitor and diprint from a restricted IP address.
