Configuring Network Resources
The Network Resources in IDM are used to permit or deny traffic to and from
specified sources and destination. This is done by configuring an IP-based
filter based on either:
■
The IP address (individual address or subnet address) of the source
or destination, or
The protocol (IP, ICMP, VRRP, etc.)
■
■
The TCP or UDP port (i.e., based on protocol and application, such
as Telnet or HTTP)
For example, you can create a Network Resource to restrict "guest accounts"
so that they only have access to the external Internet, and no access to internal
resources. Or you can define a resource that allows HR employees to access
the payroll systems, and denies access to all other employees.
Network Resource features can be used only for switches that support IDM-
based ACLs. As of this writing, this includes only the 5300 with version E.10.02
and greater; check the ProCurve web site (www.procurve.com) for more
information.
