IP Filters
By default, OIBus only allows local access. If you need to access OIBus from a remote workstation, you must add the remote IP address.
OIBus supports both IPv4 and IPv6 formats. Ensure the IP address is correctly specified.
Allow Remote Access
To allow access from a remote IP address, you can use the following curl command with the default credentials:
Allow all IP addresses
curl --location 'http://localhost:2223//api/ip-filters' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--data '{
"address": "*",
"description": "Allow all traffic"
}'

danger
Allowing all IP addresses ("address": "*") can be risky, especially when using the proxy server. The proxy forwards requests without authentication, so it is safer to restrict access to trusted IP addresses.
Best Practices
- Restrict access to trusted IP addresses.
- Avoid using "*" in production environments.
