Admins can control where and how their org is accessed by allowing a list of trusted IP addresses for their org. Once a network is added, it is considered trusted, and attempts to access the org from outside the trusted IP address range will be blocked. This is a powerful security tool to prevent malicious activity within your org.
Note: Gainsight Mobile honors the trusted IP address range unless designated otherwise. To learn more about this configuration, refer to Bypass Mobile.
To add an IP address to allow list, take the following steps:
-
Navigate to Administration > Trusted IP Ranges.
