If you do not need to limit the credentials use to specific IP addresses (for example, when you do not have a complete list of hosts with databases), select Match All.
To use these credentials only for particular IP addresses, deselect Match All and enter the endpoint IP addresses as a comma-separated list of values that will be used to determine if this credential is suitable for a particular IP address.
They can be:
IPv4 address—For example
192.168.1.100.IPv4 range—For example
192.168.1.100-105,192.168.1.100/24, or192.168.1.\*.IPv6 address—For example
fda8:7554:2721:a8b3::3.IPv6 network prefix—For example
fda8:7554:2721:a8b3::/64.
The following address types cannot be specified
- IPv6 link local addresses (prefix
fe80::/64) - IPv6 multicast addresses (prefix
ff00::/8) - IPv4 multicast addresses (
224.0.0.0to239.255.255.255)
As you enter text, the UI divides it into pills (discrete editable units) when you enter a space or a comma. According to the text entered, the pill is formatted to represent one of the previous types or is presented as invalid.
Invalid pills are labeled with a question mark. You can also paste a list of IP addresses or ranges into this field. If any pills are invalid, a message stating the number of invalid pills is displayed above the range field. Clicking the link applies a filter that shows only invalid pills, which you can then edit or delete. The filter can be removed by clicking clear in the Showing n of n label below the Range field. There is no paste option on the context-sensitive (right-click) menu.
Warning: Do not paste a comma-separated list of IP address information into the Range field in Firefox. Doing so can crash the browser. You can use a space-separated list with no problems.
• To edit a pill, click the pill body and edit the text.
• To delete a pill, click the X icon to the right of the pill, or click to edit and delete all of the text.
• To view the unformatted source text, click the source toggle switch. The source view is useful for copying to a text editor or spreadsheet. Click the source toggle switch again to see the formatted pill view. Underneath the entry field is a filter box. Enter text in the filter box to only show matching pills. Pills are not supported in Opera.
