Limiting Requests by IP Address and User

Certain operations—like AddTicRequest—include an <BrowserIP> element in the request. 

<BrowserIP>string</BrowserIP>

This element can be used to limit requests to a specified IP address range. It can also limit requests to selected users. Otherwise this element can be ignored.

To enable this feature:

  1. Locate the AccessRights.xml file in the <KaseyInstallationDirectory>\vsaWS directory.
  2. Update the file with specified IP ranges and optionally users.
  3. Move the file to <KaseyInstallationDirectory>\vsaWS\bin directory.
  4. Restart IIS.
