You might want to allow only computers in your organization to access the VisionFS server, and automatically reject all other computers. Similarly, you might want to allow access through a particular network interface on the UNIX server, and reject accesses using other interfaces.
The Profile Editor lets you do both of these easily, by setting up a list of filters: a list of DNS names or IP addresses (not NetBIOS names), which can include wildcards, and whether those computers are allowed or denied access.
When a computer tries to access the server, VisionFS checks the list of filters. The first filter that matches determines whether the connection is allowed or denied.
If none of the filters match, the connection is denied.
To filter unwanted connections, double-click the server entry and select the Network tab.
