You can configure:
Up to 100 authorized manager addresses, where each address applies to
either a single management station or a group of stations
Manager or Operator access privileges
Configuring Authorized IP Managers does not protect access to the switch
through a modem or direct connection to the Console (RS-232) port. Also, if
an unauthorized station "spoofs" an authorized IP address, it can gain man­
agement access to the switch even though a duplicate IP address condition
exists. For these reasons, you should enhance your network's security by
keeping physical access to the switch restricted to authorized personnel, using
the username/password and other security features available in the switch,
and preventing unauthorized access to data on your management stations.

Access Levels

For each authorized manager address, you can configure either of these access
levels:
Manager: Enables full access to all screens for viewing, configuration,
and all other operations available.
Operator: Allows read-only access. (This is the same access that is
allowed by the switch's operator-level password feature.)
