Disallowing Admin Login Attempts from Unknown IP Addresses

The following instructions disallow login attempts to IBM Aspera Faspex on Demand from unknown IP addresses for all Administrator accounts (existing and new):

  1. Navigate to Accounts and click the corresponding login name(s).

  2. Scroll down to the Permissions section and update the Allowed IP addresses for login field (input specific office, home, etc. IP addresses).
  3. Click Save at the bottom of the page to retain your settings. Perform the same actions when adding new admin users.

Configured admins can now only login to their accounts from enabled IP addresses.
Important: Faspex administrators have the ability to execute post-processing scripts on the server. In the event that an Administrative account is compromised, this capability can be a serious threat to your server's security. As such, Aspera strongly recommends that you update your Administrative user permissions in order to prevent unauthorized users from executing post-processing scripts on your Faspex server.
