Restrict access based on the time, day, or date
You can set time, day, or date restrictions on when a user can authenticate. By default, restrictions are disabled.
If the Virtual Server is configured for LDAP integration, consider using Active Directory time, day, or date restrictions. Any changes to restrictions in Active Directory will automatically be applied by the authentication server.
-
Navigate to Assignment > Access Restrictions.
-
Select the Enable Restrictions check box.
-
Specify the date, time, or day restrictions:
Field Description Start Date
The user cannot authenticate prior to this date.
Stop Date
The user cannot authenticate starting on this date.
For example, to specify one day of access on 2017/09/01:
- Start Date: 2017/09/01

Start Time
The user cannot authenticate prior to this time of day, within the Start Date and Stop Date range.
Stop Time
The user cannot authenticate after this time of day, within the Start Date and Stop Date range.
For example, to specify authentication between 17:00-22:00 on 2017/09/01:

- Stop Date: 2017/09/02
