Topic: SSH - Specify which hosts can access it besides LAN

[AaronG]

Hi,

Is there anyway to enable SSH to be available to only PARTICULAR hosts... eg 111.11.11.1/32

I know I could simply VPN into the site and then connect as a "local network computer" but this is a pain in the arse  

Anyway I can manually edit which hosts are allowed to access SSH from the Internet?

Regards
Aaron

Can i do this by adding the single IP Addresses to the LOCAL NETWORKS list?

It would be good if it is an SSH specific setting though.

Similar to the below option in REMOTE ACCESS for access to the HTTPS server-manager console.

Remote Management

It is possible to allow hosts on remote networks to access the server manager by entering those networks here. Use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 to limit the access to the specified host. Any hosts within the specified range will be able to access the server manager using HTTPS.

Cheers
Aaron
