Trusted IP Ranges in Salesforce

Trusted IP Ranges in Salesforce:

Trusted IP Range feature provides a second level of authentication when logging in to Salesforce.

The list is pre-populated with the addresses from which a user has historically logged in:

– All IP addresses known to be associated with Salesforce are included (204.14.238.1 – 204.14.239.254).
– All IP addresses known to have been used by phishers are filtered out.

This feature is automatically enabled if IP Range Restrictions are not being provided:

– Option 1: Add Trusted IP Ranges for your entire org.
– Option 2: Add Trusted IP Ranges on a Profile by Profile basis.

Log in to Salesforce with your credentials.
In the Salesforce UI, click Your Name | Setup | Manage Users | Users | Admin User.

Look at the Login History related list and note the IP address. Click Your Name | Setup | Administration Setup | Security Controls | Network Access | New
