There are some few but still important differences between the 

Xref
AnchorNameaccount creation form SNOM
 and the 
Xref
AnchorNameaccount creation form
: security model, obfuscation Mode and Obfuscation Key fields are gone and instead you can read Deny and Permit. Due to the type of hardware underlying the SNOM account, we do assume that the hardware would be wired connected on a desktop. Also no obfuscation is possible because the device doesn't allow it. Instead the wired channel can provide us an easy to go access list, based on the LAN IP addresses. We can create both one White-List and one Black-List in order to bind the user's access to one specific device which can be identified by the LAN IP address. The different option shown are:

  • Deny
  • Permit 
Deny

Deny represent the blacklist based on the IP address and the net mask we want to deny when associated to the current user. You have to write this in the form: <ipaddress>/<network mask>

Examples:

  • 192.168.0.38/255.255.255.255 : Denies traffic from this IP address
  • 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 : Denies every address
Permit

Permit is the exact opposite of the Deny option. It represent the whitelist based on the IP address and the net mask we want to have access. You have to write this in the form: <ipaddress>/<network mask>

Example:

  • 192.168.0.38/255.255.255.0 : Allows traffic from this Network
Tip
titleEXAMPLE

You may have multiple rules for masking traffic. Combining together the Deny and the Permit option let you have a fine grain rule of access for any single user's account.

Please keep in mind that the access rules are processed from the first to the last, meaning that the Deny will be used first and then will be analysed analyzed the Permit one.

So:

  Deny: 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0

  Permit: 216.27.242.66/255.255.255.255

 Deny every address except for the only one allowed.
