Configuring
Authorization
Station Agents
For this feature to become available (activated), you must enter the
IP addresses of the Authorized Management Stations when prompted during
the installation and initial configuration of the VCX IP Telephony System.
If at least one IP address is entered, this feature becomes active, and only
that machine can manage the server. If no IP addresses are configured at
initial installation, the feature is not enabled (not activated).
The Authorized Stations table lists which IP addresses the common agent
accepts SNMP request from. Requests originating from other sources are
dropped. This is a security feature on the common agent.
