[RESOLVED] Auto-Whitelist non-fqdn or known IP ranges

Hello

Many of the sites i visit at work are accessed via non qualified DNS names or ip address.
For example http://corpsite1 or http://10.x.x.x

Is there a way to auto-whitelist any site referenced this way .. or that resolves into my companies IP address range?

Thanks in advance (yes .. i did try to search 1st ! ;-))

With the private or IP ranges, yes. To whitelist 192.168.0.0/24 you can simply put 192.168 and it will automatically temp allow anything in that /24 range. With the 10.0.0.0/8 range, you can simply put 10 and it will automatically temp allow anything in that /8 range. However, with other types of domain "names" no, you cannot wildcard it that way. Although for local domain servers, you can whitelist localhost mysite or whatever its called but make sure you also include 127.0.0.1 loopback address to prevent any aliasing issues.
