Description


This article explains how to configure trusted hosts to restrict administrator login access via the FortiMail GUI.

 

Scope

 

FortiMail.


Solution

 

  1. The trusted hosts can restrict admin access.
  2. For webmail access, it is not possible to restrict access based on the trusted hosts.
  3. It is recommended that trusted hosts be configured for all administrator accounts on FortiMail to ensure the device does not respond to connection attempts from untrusted sources:
  • Go to System -> Administrator -> Administrator and select an administrator (for example: 'test').
  • Under the trusted hosts field, define the IPv6/IPv4 address or subnet and the subnet mask from which the admin will log in.
