When you enter internal IP addresses for a profile, you now have more flexibility in entering them. You can enter IP addresses in any of these ways:
• | Full IP address. Enter the full IP address. |
(For example, enter “250.250.250.0”.)
• | Wildcard IP addresses. Enter IP addresses with wildcards in any of these fomats: n*, n.m.*, n.n.m.*, or n.n.n.*, where “m” represents zero to two digits and “n” represents one to three digits. |
(For example, enter any of these IP addresses: “250.*”, “250.99.*”, “250.250.99.*”, or “250.250.250.*”.)
• | Range of IP addresses. Enter a range of IP addresses in any of these formats: n-n, n.n-n.n, n.n.n-n.n.n, n.n.n.n-n.n.n.n, where “n” represents one to three digits. |
(For example, enter any of these IP addresses: “250-260”, “250.250.250.0-260.260.260.250”, “250.250-260.250”, “250.250.250-260”.)
Note: You cannot use a wildcard within a range of IP addresses.
• | Netmask of IP addresses. Enter IP addresses with this format: n.n.n.n/m, where ”m” represents how many bits need to match in the IP address. |
(For example, enter any of these formats: “250.250.130.12/24” or “250.250.250.12/1”.)
• | Computer name. If you have mapped the workstation’s name to a static IP address in the “windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts” file on the computer where the Application Server is running, you can enter the remote computer name instead of the IP address. |
Information Portal does not check for duplicate IP addresses. Having duplicate IP addresses does not cause any problems.
Here are some rules to follow when entering IP addresses:
• | All octets of an IP address that begin with a zero must contain only a zero. (For example, “250.250.250.0” is a valid IP address, but “250.250.250.02” is not.) |
• | Octets must be “255” or less. |
