How to Make a Quiz Available Within a Certain IP Address Range

 

ProProfs Quiz Maker allows you to secure your quizzes by enabling IP-based security. You can set a permissible range of IP addresses from which the learners can take the quiz, thus restricting the quiz takers from unauthorized network IP accessing the quiz.

 

Using a specific IP address range to access the quiz lets you:

 

  • Assess the quiz takers within an organization.

  • Limit unauthorized access to the quiz

  • Prevent cheating in quizzes and get genuine responses

 

Example:

A training institute conducts exams in a computer lab and limits quiz access to the lab’s IP range. This ensures that only students present in the lab can attempt the quiz during the scheduled session.

 

Here’s how the warning appears when quiz takers from an unauthorized IP address try to access the quiz:

 

 

 

How to Set the Specific IP Address Range to Access Your Quizzes

 

Step 1: In your ProProfs Quiz Maker dashboard, go to Settings.

 

 

Step 2: Navigate to the Advanced tab.

 

 

Step 3: Enable the Network Security option, enter the IP address range and click Save.

 

 

NOTE: To add another IP address range, click “+Add Another” and click “Save.”

 

 

Now only quiz takers from the specified IP address range(s) can access the quiz.

 

That is all about setting the specific IP range in ProProfs Quizzes.
