In the "Security" tab, you can set up permissions for accessing a Webcast in the WebcastConsumer. You can allow access only to clients connecting with certain external IP addresses, or only to clients referred by link to the Webcast from certain domains, or only to users registering with specific email addresses or domains. You can configure both combinations of these options, in which case both all sets of conditions must be satisfied before access is granted; the IP range is checked first, then the referrer domain, then the registered email address.
IP Range
To permit access only to clients from specific IP addresses or ranges, check the option Permit access by IP range. Then, you can enter either a single IPv4 address in the format 123.234.123.234, or an IPv4 range in the format 123.234.123.234/24. This second format is known as CIDR notation and is a short form of including a whole subnet of addresses. More information on the CIDR notation is available here: Classless Inter-Domain Routing.

If you later uncheck the Permit access by referrer domain option, any entries made are retained but are not used to manage access to the Webcast. You can later recheck the option without re-entering the referrer domain entries.
Predefined Registration
To permit access only to users registering with specific email addresses, check the option Permit access by email address. Then, you can add either individual email addresses such as john.doe@movingimage.com, or a wildcard email domain such as *@movingimage.com. In the second case, note that the wildcard *@ implies any subdomain of movingimage.com.
The value entered is validated, and if valid, the + button is enabled to add it to the permitted list. Invalid entries will be highlighted with a red border.

You can add as many email addresses or domains as you wish. It is not possible to add the same value more that once. Each entry is shown beneath the entry field, and can be deleted using the ✖️ within the label.
