Valid IP Addresses - Overview
InfiniTime Software Application access can be restricted by defining Valid IP Addresses. This security feature works as follows:
- When a user attempts to log in, their IP address is checked against two lists:
- Company-wide Valid IP Addresses
- Employee-specific Valid IP Addresses
- Access is granted only if the user's IP address matches either list
- If both lists are empty, access is allowed from any IP address
Important Notes
- IP Address restrictions are separate from Security Roles
- IP restrictions control login access, while Security Roles control actions within the software
- An Administrator with full permissions will still be blocked if their IP address isn't authorized
Login Validation Process
- User must provide correct Login ID and Password
- System checks the user's IP against Company-wide Valid IP Addresses
- If match found or list is empty → proceed
- If no match → access denied
- System checks the user's IP against Employee-specific Valid IP Addresses
- If match found or list is empty → access granted
- If no match → access denied
