"Allow access from the specified nodes." What is this?

John Woodall

My question is what does this mean?

The interface provides the option:

 

The help interface says:

Login restriction
Allow access from the specified nodes. You can specify no restriction (any node), named nodes, or a node range.

 

Well thanks for telling me nothing!

What can I do with this?  My Google-fu turned up nothing useful.

    So it turns out you can't.

    This is only for the actual IP of the client. 

    So once you connect to the SSL VPN, if the SSL VPN IP (range) is not in the allowed node list, it does not allow it.

    even if there's another group that has the public IP allowed, it does not allow it.

    Hi  

    Thank you for sharing the details.

    Once the tunnel creates the traffic will be coming to the XG would the IP leased to SSL VPN client but it is not persistent IP which will not allow you to achieve your requirement.

    We do have a persistent IP address for specific user feature in Sophos connect, L2TP and PPTP
