Managing Security in HTTP
All users will always have access to the StorPoint CD Home Page.
However, you can restrict access to the CD-ROMs and to the
configuration and security files.
CD-ROMs
To restrict access to the drives and inserted CD-ROMs on your
StorPoint CD, you can specify an
HTTPPassword
for each volume on
the Management - Volume Rights page. Users will then be prompted
for user name and password when trying to access the resource from a
Web browser. Any user name will be accepted.
If you want to limit Web browser access to the administration pages
only, set the
EnableMediaAccess
parameter on the Configuration -
HTTP page to
no
.
Notes:
❏
If you have specified a SCSI alias name for a CD-ROM drive, the
CD-ROM drive settings will override the CD-ROM disc settings.
Therefore, if a SCSI alias has been set the only way to protect the
inserted disk is to set an HTTP password for the CD-ROM drive.
For example, this can be useful if you want to restrict access to a
series of CD-ROMs, e.g. a monthly issue.
❏
You are recommended not to use the
HTTPPassword
to protect
the configuration and security files. Use the
ServerPassword
on
the Configuration - General page instead.
