Access to Management Interface

Hi i want to restrict access to Management interface - meaning instead of blocking on services level (httpd and sshd) - i want to drop traffic based on source ip and port (iptables) what would be the best way to achieve it - Thanks

    i donot see why it would not be sufficient to block access to https and ssh based on ipaddress, and if you have a use case of why you want "Firewall " like ACL on management interfaces you will have to use AFM for that, AFM rules can be applied to the management interface.
