An IP list is a named group of IP addresses and IP ranges. Create it once and reuse it in the targeting of any offer, to accept traffic only from those IPs or to block them. When you add or remove IPs, the change applies right away to every offer that uses the list.
Go to Control → Configuration → IP lists.
The list shows the ID, Name, Creation date, N° of IPs/IP ranges and Description of each IP list. Use Filter to find a list by name.
Create an IP list
Click Create.
Fill in the GENERAL tab. Both fields are mandatory.
Click Save. Aftrad saves the list and opens the IPS tab, where you add the IPs.
IP list name — a name you'll recognise when you pick the list in an offer, e.g. "Office IPs" or "Blocked data centers".
Description — what the list is for.
Add IPs
In Enter IPs, paste the IPs, one per line. You can mix:
single IPv4 addresses, e.g.
203.0.113.10;single IPv6 addresses, e.g.
2001:db8::1;IP ranges in CIDR notation, e.g.
198.51.100.0/24(all the IPs from198.51.100.0to198.51.100.255).
Then click Add IPs to list.
Aftrad checks the format of each line and shows the result: All, Succeeded and Errors. Valid IPs are added to the list below. Invalid ones are marked "This IP range is invalid" and stay in the Enter IPs box, so you can fix them and click Add IPs to list again.
Dismiss closes the result panel. Once the list has IPs, Export CSV downloads them as a CSV file.
Note: Not sure about CIDR notation? Click See doc under the box for a quick guide.
Edit an IP list
In the IP lists page, click the list name or the Edit IP list icon (pencil) in the Actions column. The list has two tabs:
GENERAL — change the IP list name or Description and click Save.
IPS — add IPs as when you created the list, or remove them.
Remove IPs
To remove one IP, click the minus icon in its row. It's removed right away.
To remove several, select their checkboxes and choose Remove selected under Bulk actions. View selected shows only the rows you selected; Clear selection unselects them.
Use an IP list in an offer
Open the offer (Home → Offers) and add a Client IP rule in its targeting. You can do it in two places.
Targeting (Main setup)
The simple way: one rule for the whole offer.
Go to GENERAL → Main setup, section Targeting, and click Show more.
In Client IP, choose the operator and select one or more IP lists.
Click Save.
In — the offer only accepts clicks from IPs in the selected lists.
Not in — the offer rejects clicks from IPs in the selected lists.
Hypertargeting
Use it when the IP rule has to be combined with other conditions, e.g. Client IP in "Office IPs" and Country is Spain.
Go to GENERAL → Hypertargeting and click Add group.
Click Add rule, choose Client IP in Select targeting, then In or Not in, and select the IP lists.
Add the other rules of the group and click Save.
For everything else about groups and rules, see Offer Hypertargeting.
Note: Leave Client IP empty to accept clicks from any IP.
