How to avoid to use Verification Code

Hi,

 

I know for security, if I login in Salesforce wity my account on a different cumputer, Salesforce need I input the Verification Code.

So, I want to know is that possible to avoid to use Verification Code when I use different computer or mobile device to access my Salesforce instance?

 

 

Thank you!

Although I have yet to do so, I believe if the IP address is whitelisted the security token is not needed. IP ranges are specified at Setup | Administration Setup | Security Controls | Network Access page. The following links should be helpful.

You can get rid of the verification code by specifying the trusted ip range in Setup -> Admininstration Setup -> Security Controls -> Network Access.

 

Click 'New' and set the start and end ip address as follows:

 

0.0.0.0 to 1.255.255.255

 

According to the docs:

 

The start and end IP addresses in an IPv4 range must include no more than 33,554,432 addresses (225, a /7 CIDR block). For example, the following ranges are valid:

  • 0.0.0.0to1.255.255.255
  • 132.0.0.0to132.255.255.255
  • 132.0.0.0to133.255.255.255

Hope this helps!

Hi Anup,

 

Thanks for your answer. I have used Network Access beforce, and can aovid to use the security_token or verification code. But if I use a mobile device like ipad or an Android tablet to access my Salesforce data, I don't know how to handle it. I have saw some article by Salesforce, and found some description:

https://help.salesforce.com/apex/HTViewHelpDoc?id=users_profiles_epui_login_ip_ranges_edit.htm&language=en_US

"The mobile application bypasses IP range definitions set up for profiles. When accessing dashboards and Visualforce pages, the mobile application initiates a secure connection to Salesforce over the mobile carrier's network, but the mobile carrier's IP addresses might be outside of the IP ranges allowed on the user's profile. "

 

So, do you know how to handle a mobile device?

 

Thank you!

Hi Crocket,

 

Do you know how to handle a mobile device. when I use them to access my Salesforce data. I found a description in the Salesforce article support by you.

 

"The mobile application bypasses IP range definitions set up for profiles. When accessing dashboards andVisualforce pages, the mobile application initiates a secure connection to Salesforce over the mobile carrier's network, but the mobile carrier's IP addresses might be outside of the IP ranges allowed on the user's profile."

 

Thank you!
