IP Control
General Information​
The IP Control trigger is designed to detect logins from specific IP addresses.
When a trader logs into the trading platform from an IP listed in the settings, the system generates a notification for the user.
This feature helps dealers identify situations where connections originate from specific corporate IPs, such as those belonging to an internal broker's network.
Additionally, the trigger can detect accounts using multiple IPs, allowing brokers to monitor unusual login patterns.

Trigger Logic​
📌 The system checks the IP address of traders logged into the trading platform.
📌 If a login matches an IP specified in the settings, a notification is triggered.
📌 If multiple IP detection is enabled, a notification is generated when an account logs in from a specified number of different IPs.
