How to Get StartedHow to Get Started

1. Retrieve the current office network ranges using timeman.networkrange.get
2. Prepare a list of IP addresses and ranges that belong to the office network
3. Save the ranges using timeman.networkrange.set
4. Check a separate IP address using timeman.networkrange.check
5. Use the check result with the timeman.timecontrol.reports.get report to determine whether the employee was in the office network when starting or ending the workday

Get RangeGet Range

You can find out the current settings of the IP address ranges using the timeman.networkrange.get method. This method returns a list of all configured ranges.

Set RangeSet Range

The timeman.networkrange.set method creates or updates ranges. You can specify a range as:

• a single IP address. For example, 10.10.0.1
• a block of addresses in the format start_address-end_address. For example, 10.0.0.0-10.255.255.255

Check IP AddressCheck IP Address

The timeman.networkrange.check method checks whether the specified IP address belongs to the office network ranges. If no address is specified, the system will check the current IP.

Report on Identified Absences contains the IP addresses at the start and end of the employee's day. Using the timeman.networkrange.check method, you can verify whether the person was in the office network at those times.
