Restrict access to the account

By default, access to the account is allowed from all IP addresses. Account Owner and User Admin can restrict access to the account — users will only be able to log into the account from IP addresses and subnets that the Account Owner and User Admin added to the allowed list.

The access restriction applies to logging in through the dashboard and accessing the API at addresses that include https://api.selectel.ru. For more information on API access and authorization, see the Authorization instructions.

Access restriction does not apply to external-panel.

Add address⁠

  1. From Control Panel, open the menu in the upper right corner and select Profile & Settings.

  2. Go to Access Restriction.

  3. Click Add Addresses.

  4. Before adding an IP address, make sure the IP address is static. You can check the address type with your ISP.

  5. Enter an address. You can add:

    • IPv4 address;
    • IPv6 address;
    • subnet in the format 55.55.55.55.55/29.

    To retain access to your account, first add your current IP address.

  6. Optional: enter a comment. For example, specify who owns the specified IP address or subnet. The maximum length of a comment is 256 characters.

  7. Optional: to add another address, click Add another address and repeat steps 5-6.

  8. Press Add.

  9. Sessions from addresses that are not listed will be terminated and access to the account from them will be denied.

Delete the address⁠

The Account Owner and User Administrator may delete one address or all addresses from which the account is authorized to be accessed. When all addresses are deleted, all restrictions will be removed — users will be able to access the account from any addresses.

  1. From Control Panel, open the menu in the upper right corner and select Profile & Settings.
  2. Go to Access Restriction.
  3. From the ( ) address menu, select Delete.
  4. To confirm the deletion, enter the address.
  5. Press Delete.
