Management of IP addresses and IP address ranges for access control to short URLs in the system. You can define individual IPv4 or IPv6 addresses as well as entire IP ranges that are authorized to access the short URLs generated in the system. This increases security through IP-based access restrictions.
Identification
Basic identification and configuration features of the IP address or IP range, including name, address details and whether it is a single address or an address range.| Property | Description |
| Designation | Enter a meaningful name for the IP address or IP range here (e.g. "Head office", "External location Hamburg" or "VPN area Marketing"). This makes it easier to identify and manage access authorizations. |
| Start address (IPv4 or IPv6) | Enter the IP start address here, either in IPv4 format (e.g. "192.168.1.100") or IPv6 format (e.g. "2001:db8::1"). Only this address is used for individual addresses. For address ranges, this marks the start of the range. |
| End address (optional, for areas) | Enter the IP end address for an address range here (e.g. "192.168.1.200" or "2001:db8::ff"). This field is only required if you want to define an IP range. This field remains empty for individual addresses. Also activate the "Range?" checkbox so that the range is recognized correctly. |
| area? | Activate this checkbox if you want to define an IP address range (from start address to end address). Without a tick, only the individual IP address from the "Start address" field is used for the access authorization. If the checkbox is activated, you must also fill in the "End address". |
| Internal ID (Data ID) | Unique internal ID for system-internal identification of the data record. This field is automatically assigned by the system and is used for technical assignment. |
