  2. From the IP Range tab, double-click Insert a new row.

    You can enter a single IP address or multiple ranges of IP addresses. For example, for a range of IP addresses enter 192.0.2.0 in the Start IP column and 192.0.2.255 in the End IP column.

    Note: For a single IP addresses, make sure that you enter the same IP address in the Start IP address and End IP columns.
