3. Click Allowed IPs tab. A list of your allowed IP addresses displays.
4. Click Add allowed IP. The IP can be a single IP or an IP block.

   The IP must be specified in CIDR format, i.e. 198.51.100.135/32 for a single IP or 198.51.100.0/24 for an IP block.

5. Enter a single IP address or a subnetwork.
   Note:

   To restore initial settings and allow connections from all IPs, add the following IP block to the list: 0.0.0.0/0.
