With the IP range protection, you can define IP ranges in which the playout of your videos is allowed. In the administration area, under "Security Policies", you create a whitelist with all allowed IP ranges.
IP ranges are defined according to the CIDR notation. In this notation, subnet masks are specified by a suffix, appended with a slash to the IP address (sample: 74.125.227.0/29).
To define IP ranges, proceed as follows:
- In the navigation bar, click the entry "Security Policies".
- If you want to add an already existing security policy with IP range protection, select the corresponding entry in the list of security policies, otherwise, create a new security policy (see "Setting up a Security Policy").
- In the editing area on the right side, select IP range protection with the corresponding activation button.
- Now enter the required IP ranges. Video playout is allowed within the specified IP ranges.
