Connection sources are egress IP addresses in your branch/campus/datacenter that are subject to the security policies dictated by the Advanced DNS Resolver policies. Add and configure connection sources to your Advanced DNS Resolver configuration.

Click Create Connection Source and provide a Name and optional Description.
Select a DNS Security Profile with the appropriately configured security policies for the connection source.
Add IP addresses or subnets for the connection source. If you do not provide any at this time, a popup will notify you to add IP address(es) to your new connection.
1. From the IP Addresses panel, + Add or delete entries (using the icon) to modify the IP Addresses list entries as necessary. You can only add valid IPv4 IP addresses or a /28 subnet.
2. Click Save when finished. An icon appears next to new unverified connection sources.
To Verify the IP address, you must download the token using the supplied link (option 1) or generate one by using the curl command (option 2). After you receive the token, you must then Enter Verification Token in the provided field.

The client device used for verification (the accessing URL) must be within the specified subnet or IP range for successful IP/Subnet verification.
Click Verify to continue.
Repeat as necessary for additional IP addresses.

If you are verifying a subnet, it is only necessary to verify a single IP address in the subnet IP range; all other IP addresses in that subnet are automatically verified.
