2.6. Setting Host Restrictions

Connection restrictions specify which hosts are allowed to connect to the Admin Server. You can
list these hosts by DNS name, IP address, or both. Only host machines listed within the connection
restriction parameters are allowed to connect to the Admin Server. This setting allows wildcards within
a domain or an IP address range to make setting connection restrictions simpler.
