The Access Control module allows the admin to manage and restrict access to the system based on IP addresses or network ranges. It is used to enhance security by allowing only authorized sources to connect with the IP-PBX system.
This module helps in controlling incoming requests and preventing unauthorized access.
Access Control Nodes
This section allows the admin to define specific IP addresses or CIDR ranges and set their access permissions.
Here, the following details need to be configured:
- CIDR – IP address or range in CIDR format (e.g., 192.168.1.0/24).
- Description – A short note describing the purpose of the rule.
- Authorize – Toggle to allow or deny access for the defined IP/range.
- Delete – Option to remove the rule.
The admin can click on “Add New” to create a new access rule and then click “Update” to save changes.
The admin can use this module to:
- Restrict system access based on IP addresses
- Allow only trusted networks or providers
- Block unauthorized or suspicious connections
- Manage network-level security rules efficiently
All records can be updated or removed as per security requirements. Regular monitoring is recommended to maintain system security.
