# Allowed hosts/subnets

**Who should read this article**: Administrators

Manage the list of IP addresses from which users may log into your contact center.

## Introduction

To enhance security and control access to your contact center, Voiso allows you to define a list of approved host and subnet IP addresses. When you enable the **Restrict access to specific hosts/subnets** option in the **Security** tab of the [System Settings](/v1/docs/administration-system-settings) page, only devices and SIP endpoints with listed IP addresses can access your contact center.

## Using the Allowed hosts/subnets page

The host and subnet table in the **Allowed hosts/subnets** page is sortable by label or host/subnet. Click the row header to change the sorting order. To delete a host/subnet from the list, hover your mouse pointer over it, then on the far right of the table row, click the trash can icon (**Delete** button).
