Dear support,
I have a problem to manage the Template because more times I change my IP address used with the Administrator account. But If i use the range IP Address 89.251.242 in the IP Address allowed list doesn't work, but if i Use the specific IP address 89.251.242.54 it works
Is it possible to allow a range of IP Adresses?
Because if is not possible, for me is not possible to use this component
Thank you in advice
My best regards
The expression 89.251.242 is not an IP range. It is an implied single IP address: 89.251.242.0
What you probably meant to use is 89.251.242. (note the trailing dot) which is called an implied IP range. This is understood as 89.251.242.0-89.251.242.255 i.e. a Class C subnet of the implied 89.251.242.0 IP address.
About your complaint, kindly note that I have documented all the ways you can define an IP address range in Admin Tools since early 2011; that's 14 years ago:
89.251.242. Implied IP range. I do not recommend it exactly because of what happened to you. It's easy to forget the trailing dot, resulting in a garbage in garbage out situation. Only works with IPv4.89.251.242.0-89.251.242.255 Human-readable IP range. Only works with IPv4.89.251.242.0/255.255.255.0 IP/netmask. Only works with IPv4.89.251.242.0/24 CIDR notation. This is the recommended method and works with both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.Most networking tools only support CIDR and netmask notations. Some tools, mostly web servers, support human-readabe IP ranges. Implied IP ranges are no longer supported by modern networking tools, but you may find them in legacy tools. There are no other notations for IP ranges I have ever seen. I have added support for everything under the sun.
