Specify a Single IP Address

You can specify a single IP address for a policy. If you specify a single IP address, the policy only fires for users who access the policy’s resources from the specified IP address.

Note: When you create or modify a Policy Server object in the Policy Server User Interface, use ASCII characters. Object creation or modification with non-ASCII characters is not supported.

To specify a single IP address to a policy

  1. In the Add an IP Address Dialog, click on the Single Host radio button.

    The dialog changes to display the fields associated with your selection.

  2. Enter an IP Address in the fields provided.

    If you do not know the IP address, but you have a domain name for the address, you can click on the DNS Lookup button to open the DNS Lookup dialog.

    Enter a fully qualified host name in the Host Name field and click OK. The DNS Lookup dialog closes and the IP address for the host name you entered appears in the SiteMinder Policy dialog.

  3. Click OK to save the IP address and return to the SiteMinder Policy dialog.

    The IP address appears in the list of addresses in the Policy Dialog.
