NCast Telepresenter Reference Manual

3.7.3. IP restriction

This limits the valid IP addresses, which may send commands to the Telepresenter. Normally this field
should contain a single IP address, which is the IP of the controller in charge of the Telepresenter. Thus, if
the password is compromised an attacker will still not gain access to the unit. This field may contain:

www.xxx.yyy.zzz

A single address

www.xxx.yyy.*

An address range

www.xxx.yyy.0/24

A subset of a network (CIDR notation)

www.xxx.yyy.zzz,sss.ttt.uuu.vvv

A comma-separated list of addresses

www.xxx.yyy.zzz,sss.ttt.uuu.*

A comma-separated list of addresses and ranges

Standard CIDR notation is documented in IETF RFC 4632.

3.8. N-W

AY

The N-Way tab is used on Telepresenters which are configured for service with an N-Way Server. See the
“

NWay Reference Manual

” for further information on the settings of this tab.
