Adding New TCP/IP Access List Entries

Complete the following steps to add a new entry to the TCP/IP Access List.

  1. Select Tools»Options to display the Options dialog box.
  2. Select VI Server: TCP/IP Access from the pull-down menu at the top of the Options dialog box.
  3. Type a valid browser address in the text box. Enter a domain name, such as mydomain.com, or an IP address, such as 130.164.123.123. You also can use wildcards in the browser address.
  4. Click the Add button to add the new browser address to the list.

    Note  If the VI Server runs on a computer that does not have access to a DNS server, do not use domain name entries in the TCP/IP Access List. Requests to resolve the domain name or IP address fail, slowing down the computer.

  5. Click the Allow Access or Deny Access buttons to allow or deny access to the selected item, respectively. A green checkmark appears to the left of the item when you allow access, and a red X appears when you deny access.
  6. If an entry does not have a green checkmark or a red X by its name, the syntax for the entry is incorrect. Edit the entry or click the Remove button to delete it.
  7. Click the OK button to close the Options dialog box and save the changes.
