Access Controls

Access control list can allow or deny ranges of IP addresses. There are several purposes for using the ACL.

  • The main purpose is for your carriers ip addresses.
  • Be careful with what and how you use ACL.
  • Most common mistakes result in calls not working between extensions and other undesirable results.
  • Be sure to keep Domains access control to default deny.
  • Do not put your public ip or phone IP addresses in the domains access control list.
  • Don’t supply both the domain and the cidr on the same node.
  • If adding a single IP address to the CIDR field make sure to add /32 on the end of the IP address.

Access Control Example

Goto Advanced > Access Controls. Click the edit icon for domains. At the bottom under nodes click the plus icon.
