SSH and IP permit

[gaban]

I need to confiure Ssh on our switches with catOS. Reading up on it I guess you have to do an IP permit list. Is this IP permit list mandatory or optional. I basically just need SSH and need to be able to get to the switches from all our subnets.

Thanks,

I think it is optional, but it has been ages since I have set it up. An ip permit list of 0.0.0.0 with a mask of 0.0.0.0 should be a wildcard that allows all hosts, everywhere to connect. That said, restricting access to as few hosts as possible may provide some benefit
