Setting trusted IP range in salesforce

Every time a user tries to login in to salesforce, salesforce checks whether the user’s profile has IP address restrictions. If IP address restrictions are defined for the user’s profile, logins from an undesignated IP address are denied, and logins from a specified IP address are allowed.

If profile-based IP address restrictions are not set, Salesforce checks whether the user is logging in from a device used to access Salesforce before.

• If the user’s login is from a device and browser that Salesforce recognizes, the login is allowed.
• If the user’s login is from an IP address in your organization’s trusted IP address list, the login is allowed.
• If the user’s login is not from a trusted IP address or a device and browser Salesforce recognizes, the login is blocked.

Whenever a login is blocked, Salesforce has to verify the user’s identity:
in this case, the user is prompted to verify his identity using Salesforce Authenticator (version 2 or later), or to enter a verification code . salesforce will allow user to login if user’s Identity is verified by this.

Setting trusted IP ranges will allow user to directly login to salesforce without verifying his identity, by Salesforce Authenticator.

To set trusted IP ranges we can follow these simple steps:

Step:1 Goto ‘Nework Access’. you will find it in, Setup->Security Controls->Network acess or type ‘Network Access’ in ‘Qick find Box’ under Setup.

Step :2 Click New,Enter the trusted IP ranges, you want to allow, for salesforce.

Step:3 Save these IP ranges.
