Address ranges explained

IP Address ranges are the set of IP's used on the LAN, e.g. if you have 10 machines using IP addresses between 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.10. You should enter the LAN range to the Addresses field IP address with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 This would allow all the addresses in the range of the LAN to access the server this range was defined on.

 

The entry would look like this:

 

IP address 192.168.0.1

Subnet mask 255.255.255.0

 

Note: This would allow the complete range 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.255 to access the server.
