When a Custom IP Filter is chosen, the user must Assign Allowed and Blocked IPs manually. Any IP Restriction must include the Allowed IPs and a Block line asterisk wildcard as indicated below. This is required to ensure unapproved locations are successfully blocked.

1. Click Custom IP Filter, from the drop down box.

2. A blank text box will appear.

3. Type ALLOW, a Space and then type the IP Address for each IP approced for testing.

4. Type a Slash (/) followed by another IP address to include a range of approved addresses.

5. Type BLOCK, a Space and then an Asterisk (*) to ensure the test is only accessible through the approved IP addresses.

6. Click Submit.     

After an instructor creates a set of Custom IP Filter Rules, those rules are available to the same instructor when setting IP Filter Rules for future assessments.
