to the broadcast.
For example if your system is accessible on your local area network (LAN)
and you want to make sure only the CEO’s specific desktop, laptop and
tablet computers (with IP Addresses 192.168.1.50, 192.168.1.51, and
192.165.1.75, respectively) can connect to the broadcast, construct the
following allow list:
Allow: 192.168.1.50, 192.168.1.51, 192.168.1.75
Allow list with a range of IP
addresses
Sometimes you’ll want a range of computer IP addresses to connect to
your system. This may happen when you have one range of IP addresses
assigned to desktop computers (i.e. in the range 192.168.1.1 to
192.168.1.100) and another range assigned to boardroom computers (i.e.
the range 192.168.1.200 to 192.168.1.250). If you only want the
boardroom computers to connect to broadcasts from the system you can
specify the range of boardroom IP addresses rather than needing to type
in each individual address. The allow list looks as follows:
Allow: 192.168.1.200-192.168.1.250
Note that we could have specified two of the IP addresses in the previous
example as a range.
Allow list with a range of IP
addresses and one or
more specific IP addresses
Putting the first two examples together, we want to permit access to IP
addresses in the range of boardroom computers (192.168.1.200-
192.168.1.250) and also want to add the desktop, laptop and tablet
computers of the CEO (IP addresses 192.168.1.50, 192.168.1.51, and
192.168.1.75, respectively). Note the first two IP addresses are
consecutive, so they can be added as a second range. Add these IP
addresses to the list as follows:
Allow: 192.168.1.200-192.168.1.250, 192.168.1.50-192.168.1.51,
192.168.1.75
Your list can have multiple ranges and multiple distinct IP addresses,
provided they are separated by commas.

Building on the previous examples, consider a situation where you want
