Enabling IP Allow Lists in Dex

This guide will explain how the IP Allow Lists empowers your business security measures

Enabling IP Allow Lists

NOTE: IP Allow Lists must contain at least one IP address or IP address range to become fully enabled. For your convenience, the Manage IP Allow List Modal and the Dex login screen displays your IP address, so that you can quickly add it to the allow list to prevent lockout.

To enable and create an IP Allow List, complete the following steps:

1. Log into your Dex Home Organization and click Organizations in the Dex main menu.
2. Click the row on which the desire organization displays. If needed, search for the organization by either Organization Name or Organization ID or use the Legal Name, Status, Parent ID, Tax ID, or Type filters to narrow down the list that displays on the Organizations Datagrid.
3. From the Organization's Details screen, click the Security tab.
4. Click the Manage link under IP Allow Lists. A Manage IP Allow List modal displays.
5. Click the toggle (i.e., make it green) next to the Enable IP Allow List field. The IP Address and Name fields display.
6. In the IP Address field, enter either a single IP address (e.g., 192.168.100.14) or a range of IP addresses using Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation (e.g., 192.168.100.0/24).
7. In the Name field enter a 60-character or less name for the IP address or range of addresses.
8. Click the Add button. The IP address is added to the save list that displays on the Manage IP Allow List modal.
9. Repeat steps 6–8 for all the IP addresses/ranges you want to add to the Allow List.
