Hello for a very long time, it has been possible to restrict the access to groups by ip address. This is a premium feature, however, it was not possible is to use this with ssh. It was only possible for the ui and the api ssh was entirely blocked with 15.2 we're changing that we're also enabling ssh. In that case, let me quickly show you how that works.

You go to your high level group, you go to settings, you go to general and then under permissions and group features you will find the field restrict access by ip address in which you enter all the ip addresses that you want to give access to now. So far, that's the same as before.

What's new is that you can now use this with ssh and in 15.1, we've introduced a small feature that gives you more control over which git access protocols are enabled by default. Both are enabled ssh and https.

However, for those customers that have previously used the ip restriction, we are defaulting to only https to make sure that your status quo is preserved. So if you are such a customer and you want to use ssh, you need to go here and change it to both now. A final word note that, as documented administrators and group owners can access the group settings from any ip address independent of vip restriction. This is to prevent them from locking themselves out now.

I hope you like this feature and I hope you're going to make a lot of use of ip restriction and ssh in combination, and I hope you, like the other features that we're showing today have a good day.
