Whitelist IP's

Summary

In order to further protect and secure your account, Phonism allows administrators to set a tenant-specific list of IP addresses, or hostnames (which the system will resolve to an IP address) which devices are allowed to provision from. This also applies to API requests.

If a request comes into Phonism for a device in that tenant but does not originate from one of the whitelisted IP addresses, the request will be denied except in the case where Authentication Allowed Outside Whitelist is enabled and tenant credentials are being used.

Field Descriptions

Your Current IP Address

The IP address of the device you are accessing this page with.

Enable Whitelist

Default: OFF

Toggle enforcement of the whitelist.

Authentication Required for Whitelist IPs

Default: OFF

Toggle to require the Phone to authenticate using the tenant username and password. When the IP Whitelist is enabled, requests from within the whitelist must authenticate with the provisioning credentials for the tenant. If provisioning credentials are not set, the request will be denied.

Authentication Allowed Outside Whitelist

Default: OFF

When the IP whitelist is enabled, requests from outside the whitelist will be allowed if the device successfully authenticates with the provisioning credentials for this tenant. If provisioning credentials are not set, the request will be denied.

IP Addresses & Hostnames

Default: Empty

A list of IP addresses, hostnames, and notes for each record. You only need to enter either the IP address or the hostname for the entry. The system will auto-resolve your hostnames to the correct IP address.

WARNING

  • Hostnames are auto-resolved on a periodic basis so that Dynamic DNS entries are handled properly.

  • IP Range or CIDR notation is not supported today.

  • DNS SRV is not supported today.
