Restrict viewers by IP address
Pearl-2 permits you to restrict which computers can access broadcasts by building a list of allowed and/or
denied IP addresses. You can do this at a global level for the system and can also override these settings on a
per-channel basis. Both global and per-channel configuration procedures are described below.
IP address restriction is valid for the viewer only and does not affect the Admin panel or the
mobile configuration interface.
If your viewer account has a password, your viewers must connect to the system from a computer (or
gateway) with a permitted IP address and must also supply the username (viewer) and password before they
can view the broadcast.
To restrict access by IP address, you need to know the IP addresses or range of addresses for your viewers. By
default, all IP addresses are allowed to connect to the broadcast.
If you're not familiar with creating allow/deny lists, refer to the examples below this procedure for assistance
with crafting your lists.
To restrict viewers by IP address:
1. Login to the Admin panel as admin. See
2. Select the Access passwords link in the Configuration menu; the password configuration page opens.
3. Type allowed IP addresses or address ranges in the Allow IP's field. Separate addresses with a comma.
4. Type denied IP addresses or address ranges in the Deny IP's field. Separate addresses with a comma.
