Utilities: Administration: Server: Server Settings: Security: Web

These settings limit who may access the Aurea List Manager web interface by TCP/IP address. You may specify, for example, the IP addresses of the computers used by server administrators so others using different IP addresses may not access Aurea List Manager as a server admin. If blank, Aurea List Manager does not limit access by IP address.

IMPORTANT

Changes made to this page only take effect after restarting the Aurea List Manager web server.

If a user attempts to log in with an IP that is not permitted for that administrative level, they see a message indicating their IP address is not permitted.

Note

More lenient settings at higher levels do not make lower levels more lenient as well. For example if the TCP/IP for Server Admins is blank (permitting access from any TCP/IP address), but the TCP/IP for List Admins limits access to certain addresses, a list admin must log in from one of the permitted TCP/IP addresses.

If the server admin inadvertently locks out access to the web interface using these settings, the command reset_tcpip_server_admin may be run on the command line to reset server admin access. See Setting Server Options for more information about this command.

TCP/IP for Discussion Forum Interface

Specifies the TCP/IP addresses that may access the discussion forum interface. If blank, all TCP/IP addresses can access the discussion forum interface; if 0.0.0.0, no one can.

Enter one TCP address or range of addresses per line. Example:

192.168.0.1

192.168.0.1-192.168.0.10

TCP/IP for List Admins

Specifies the TCP/IP addresses that may access the list admin interface. If blank, all TCP/IP addresses can access the list admin interface; if 0.0.0.0, no one can.

Enter one TCP address or range of addresses per line. Example:

192.168.0.1
192.168.0.1-192.168.0.10

TCP/IP for Site Admins

Specifies the TCP/IP addresses that may access the site admin interface. If blank, all TCP/IP addresses can access the site admin interface; if 0.0.0.0, no one can.

Enter one TCP address or range of addresses per line. Example:

192.168.0.1
192.168.0.1-192.168.0.10

If a site TCP/IP address is not approved, the admin can still log in to the next level of admin access they have rights to. For example, if you are a site admin only, you are completely denied access. If you are a site admin and a list admin, and the site admin access is denied, you are allowed access as a list admin.

TCP/IP for Server Admins

Specifies the TCP/IP addresses that may access the server admin interface. If blank, all TCP/IP addresses can access the server admin interface; if 0.0.0.0, no one can.

Enter one TCP address or range of addresses per line. Example:

192.168.0.1

192.168.0.1-192.168.0.10

If a server TCP/IP address is not approved, the admin can still log in to the highest allowed admin rights permitted to that address. For example, if a server admin's TCP/IP address is allowed for a site admin but not a server admin, that admin would still have site admin rights.

TCP/IP for API admins

Specifies the TCP/IP addresses that may access the API. If blank, all TCP/IP addresses can access the API; if 0.0.0.0, no one can.

Enter one TCP address or range of addresses per line. Example:

192.168.0.1
192.168.0.1-192.168.0.10
