IP Filter Configuration

In this dialog you can set the IP address filter for your i-net Clear Reports server.

With the IP address filter, the access to the Remote Interface can be restricted to only the IP addresses you want to provide access to. If no filter entries are set, there is no restriction which means the Remote Interface can be used from all machines that can access the host. The IP addresses in the filter can be:

  • Individual IP addresses that are authorized,
  • Individual IP addresses that are not authorized and
  • Ranges of IP addresses that are authorized.

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) Example filters:

  • 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 )
