Trusted IP

Trusted IP is a simplified interface to create iptables rules to allow or block specific IPs, IP ranges, or subnets. This feature allows users to create whitelists (which are allowed or trusted IPs) or black lists (which are blocked or unwanted IPs). You can add, edit, and delete IP addresses as needed.

If you select White List as Trusted IP Mode and you do not set any IP range, no traffic will be allowed. If you select Black List as Trusted IP Mode and you do not set any IP range, all traffic will be allowed.

To set up a Trusted IP range:

1. Click Configuration Editor in the top navigation bar and then click Firewall > Trusted IP in the left navigation menu.
2. Check the Enabled box to turn on Trusted IP.
3. Select the Trusted IP Mode. Options are White List or Black List.
   
   NOTE: Be aware of the behavior of each list and its consequences based on your specific configuration. For example, if you select White List as Trusted IP Mode, you should include the device IP Address Range or IP Address and Subnet Mask to maintain your local device LAN access.
4. To add IP addresses, click Add IP Range in the upper right corner.
5. Under the Add IP Range, enter or select the following parameters:

a. Name

b. Mode, options are: Subnet or IP Range.

c. For Subnet:

i. IP Address

ii. Subnet Mask

d. For IP Range:

i. IP Address Start

ii. IP Address End

e. Destination Port (default: ANY)

f. Protocol, options are: ANY, TCP/UDP, TCP, or UDP

6. Click Finish. The system displays the recently added and existing IP ranges in a list.

• To edit any IP ranges, click on the pencil icon under Options.

• To delete any IP ranges, click on the trash can icon under Options.

• To revert back to default settings (where Trusted IP is disabled and all IP ranges are removed), click Reset to Default in the lower right corner

7. Click Submit.
