27 If the same annoying person keeps being able to reach your video Web page, watch his IP addresses. They’ll likely vary only in the fourth (right hand) number. For example, he may first annoy you while using IP address 72.140.119.241, then you add his name to the IP Filter list, exit Cast-a-Vision and restart. At this stage, no person from 72.140.119.241 will be able to access your video Web page. However, if 72.140.119.0 through 72.140.119.254 are owned by his ISP and are assigned first-logon first-addressed, he may appear tomorrow as 72.140.119.116 or 72.140.119.20 and thus be able to reach your video Web page. One workaround is to block the entire address range by Adding 72.140.119.* or 72.* rather than specifying an entire single address. This will make it more likely that the annoying person won’t be able to reach you, but it will do so at the expense of forbidding all users of that Internet Service Provider who receive addresses in that range.

A user attempting to reach your video Web page from that IP address will no longer be blocked. Castavision_9353.p65 27 9/30/97, 3:41 PM
