IP Address Filter

With the IP Address Filter the access to the Remote Interface can be restricted.
Specifies the IP address(es) of the hosts that are authorized for access.If the value is emtpy then there is no restriction, that means the Remote Interface can be used from all machines that can access the host.
The IP addresses can be specified as:

  • comma separated list of IP addresses that are authorized,
  • IP addresses that are not authorized (by prefixing the IP address with a minus sign) and
  • ranges of IP addresses.

If an IP address was set twice, authorized and not authorized, then the IP address is not authorized. The blocking of IP addresses has highest priority.
The IP address can be set in IPv4 and IPv6 syntax, both in full form( x.x.x.x , x:x:x:x:x:x:x:x)
Samples:

  • 127.0.0.1 ( only localhost is authorized to access )
  • 127.0.0.1,210.0.0.0-210.255.255.255 ( localhost and all clients starting with IP 210. are authorized to access )
  • 127.0.0.1,210.0.0.0-210.255.255.255, -210.111.111.111 ( localhost and all clients starting with IP 210. (210.111.111.111 excluded) are authorized to access )
