Introduction to Website Security
To access the Website Security function, select Security
from the main menu, and select Website Security from the
Security menu.
If you have the need to restrict parts of your
website, the Website Security function allows you to set up an
authorization list. This list will restrict browser access to specific
website directories.
Access to restricted areas of the website can be
granted with a username/password combination or by hostname/IP address.
