Element  <security> - Access Protection

<security> specifies the computers and networks, which are allowed to execute commands via TCP and UDP protocols.

A basic configuration can be defined, which the Job Scheduler processes before the configuration defined in <base>. The configuration defined in <base> will only then be processed after this first configuration. The basic configuration is used for settings which supplement the parent configuration.

A basic configuration can refer to a further basic configuration. The scheduler does not check if a basic configuration calls up itself.

Parent Elements

<config>

Attributes

ignore_unknown_hosts="yes|no"

Should the Job Scheduler not be able to resolve a host name (Element <host>), then it will abort if ignore_unknown_hosts="no". The job scheduler will not start. This is the default setting at the time of writing.

An abort of the scheduler is avoided if ignore_unknown_hosts="yes". The job scheduler does not ignore irresolvable host names.

Child Elements

<host> has no elements.
