IB allows you to specify which Internet IP addresses are allowed access to your account. This is done in Account Management/Security/IP Restrictions. I plan to experiment with my 'cloud' instance that is running TP on Amazon EC2. I want the IB Username used with it to be restricted to that system. Note .. this function only works if your Internet IP address is 'static' and does not change. As such .. It doesn't apply to most home users as most residential IP addresses are dynamic and will periodically change. | |
