IP Address Restrictions

Access to the PC-Duo Host over either UDP or TCP can be restricted according to the IP address of the Gateway or PC-Duo Master trying to connect with it.  Press Restrictions to specify a policy for granting Host computer access according to IP address.
  
Grant or deny access by default and then specify a list of exceptions according to specific IP address.  This policy, along with the exceptions, is applied before any authentication security rules you configure in the Security tab.  Configure the policy as follows:
 
u   Select Granted Access to grant remote access to your Host computer to all except the IP addresses in the list.
u   Select Denied Access to deny remote access to your Host computer to all except the IP addresses in the list.
 
Add, edit, or remove addresses from the exception list as follows:
 
u   To add an exception to your IP restriction policy, click Add in the IP Address Restrictions window. Enter an IP address, subnet address, or range of IP addresses in the list.

w   Select Single Computer (at one IPv4 address) and enter an IP address in the Address field.
w   Select Group of computers (by IPv4 subnet mask) and enter the appropriate values into Address and Mask.
w   Select Group of computers (by IPv4 start address & count), enter the first address in a range in the Address field, and enter the number of addresses in the range in the Number of addresses field.
w   Select Single Computer (at one IPv6 address) and enter an IP address in the Address field.
w   Select Group of computers (by IPv6 subnet mask) and enter the appropriate values into Address and Mask.
 
u   To edit a listed exception to your IP restriction policy, select an entry from the list of exceptions, and click Edit in IP Address Restrictions. Modify any items for that entry and click OK.
