What is "Specified IP" under Administration/System for?

If you enable the 'Only allow specific IP' option;
The specified IP list is the list of IP's with access to the webui.

I looked at that page and "Features" page and don't see it. But your explanation makes sense. So this is a Merlin-implemented feature? It would make sense to call it something "Restrict UI access to these IP-s:"

You'll find if you look at the Asus user's guide that there's really not a lot covered there compared to the size of the user interface. There are also some kb-type articles that you can get to via the GUI and read that are mostly dated. But it really is good to search this forum first, and then ask questions if you don't find answers, since a LOT is not covered in the user's guide.

No, that feature is part of the original firmware. That's why I don't document it.
