Description

Admin login with approved IP's is a security measure which allows to approve only selected IP's that try to login with Admin Account.



Usage

Admin login with approved IP's can only be managed by the System Admin.

The functionality is turned on by default and can be set otherwise using the setting in SETTINGS > Setup > Settings > Various > Admin login with approved IP only:' (we do not recommend to turn it off)

With the Setting enabled, all new login attempts with Admin account will fail with following message:

And will be reported to System Admin via Email. Then Admin can decide, whether to Accept such IP, or completely block it from the System by pressing on the appropriate link:

Notes

This is one-time thing for each new IP and only for admin account.

When IP is confirmed by administrator - any future attempts from this ip will be authorized.
