IP Restrictions
The IP Restrictions page offers a flexible IP security system which can be configured to allow only the computers you want to access the server. There are usually two methods in which the IP Restrictions are used. The first and most simple method is to just block bad IPs which should not be allowed access (perhaps abusive users). The second and more secure method is to block all IPs and then only allow certain IPs access by adding them to the safe IP list. However, it should be noted that safe IPs (if enabled) overrule any blocked IPs. If a connection is accepted that is blocked, the connection is immediately aborted before any login process can begin.

• Safe IPs - This allows you to specify which IPs are safe and should always be allowed access. Its important to note that safe IPs will always overrule any Blocked IPs.
• Blocked IPs - This allows you to specify which IPs should be blocked.
