    Information

    IP Addresses are unique numerical labels assigned to each device on a network with internet access.

    Restricting the IP Addresses that can log into your RMS database adds control to the network a user must be connected to before they can log into RMS.

    For maximum security, Restricted IP Addresses cannot be disabled once activated.


    Static IP Addresses are required to use this feature.

    Contact your Internet Service Provider for more information on setting up Static IP Addresses for your network.


    Select 'Use Current IP' to automatically populate the IP Address of the device being used to setup Restricted IP Addresses.

    Select the 'User' icon to view the IP Address of the device the user is logged in on.

    Setup

    Have your System Administrator complete the following.

    1. Go to Setup > Security in RMS.

    6. Select 'Save'.
