Sign-InSetting an IP Address Geo-fence
REACH provides an advanced monitoring feature which can prevent students from signing back into the school from leave events on their mobile device when they are not in fact at the school. By setting your school IP address locations you can establish a geo-fence sign-in zone that ensures students must be within your school's WIFI zone in order to sign back in to school from leave.can set IP Network Restrictions that enable us to identify whether transactions are occurring in the nominated zone or zones.
What can Network Restrictions achieve for you in REACH?
Network Restrictions can be used to influence student permissions or actions in REACH in the following way:
- Where students are permitted to sign back into school from an off campus leave event using their mobile device REACH can use Network Restrictions to ensure that this occurs only when the student is using your identified network. This ensures that the student must be in the proximity of your network in order to sign back into school.
- Student SISO to any on-campus location using their mobile device can be restricted in the same manner (ie. they must be on your WiFi network in order to sign into an on campus location)
- REACH can monitor parent approvals to leave requests and generate a warning flag when a parent approval to a leave request is provided from an on campus IP address. This flag may indicate a student is attempting to impersonate a parent in order to approve their own leave request.
