Hello fellow Moodle users.
We are trying to use the "Require network address" feature on quizzes and are not able to get it to work. We want to restrict quiz access to only computers on a certain network.
I put in a partial address (example: 192.168.1) so that any computers starting in the same range can access the quiz. However I get the message "This quiz is only accessible from certain locations, and this computer is not on the allowed list." when now opening the quiz. I verified the IP address of the computer and it is in the same range, but gets the mesaage about not being allowed. Tried 3 other computers on the same network and all get the same message.
So then I tried putting in the full exact IP of the computer (example: 192.168.1.100) in the Require Network address field in the quiz options, and still am not able to access the quiz. Get the "This quiz is only accessible from certain locations, and this computer is not on the allowed list." message each time.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. This feature is exactly what we were looking for and I was excited to find it in Moodle, but am stumped as to why it is not working as expected. Using Moodle 2.6.7 (Build: 20150112)
Thanks.
