IIsIPSecurity

The IIsIPSecurity object is a custom ADSI object that you can use to set access permissions by IP address and domain address.

The IIsIPSecurity Boolean property, GrantByDefault, determines if access by users is granted or denied by default.

If GrantByDefault is set to TRUE, then all IP addresses and Internet domains are granted access, except those you specify to be denied. Use IPDeny and DomainDeny to deny access to specific IP addresses and domains.

Note IPDeny and DomainDeny are only valid if GrantByDefault is set to TRUE.

If GrantByDefault is set to FALSE, then all IP addresses and domains are denied access by default, except those you specify to be granted access. Use IPGrant and DomainGrant to grant access to specific IPs and domains.

Note IPGrant and DomainGrant are only valid if GrantByDefault is set to FALSE.
