# Whitelisting IPs
Authenticate your IPs by creating the IP whitelist on the dashboard. Log in to your account and navigate to **Dedicated Datacenter Proxies** → **Whitelist** → **Edit whitelist**:
Add up to 10 IPs in IPv4 format (xx.xx.xx.xx).
When adding an IP address to the whitelist, ensure that it belongs exclusively to you, and avoid connecting through Proxy or VPN services.
If you're using services like Amazon Web Services (AWS), we highly recommend using username and password authentication over relying solely on IP whitelisting.
