Restrict Site Access to IP Range(s)
If your site uses a Custom Subdomain (e.g., yoursite.securevideo.com), and you wish to limit the access to your subdomain to certain IP address ranges, enter those ranges here. The required format is IP version 4 CIDR notation (see Wikipedia article on CIDR), with multiple ranges separated by commas. IP v6 is not supported. For example, if you would like to allow access only from the two public class C address blocks that you own, which are 1.1.1.x and 2.2.2.x, you would enter: 1.1.1.0/24, 2.2.2.0/24. WARNING: changing this may immediately cause you to lose access to the system.
- Default Value: No Value (allow all IP addresses)
- Account Setting: Enter whitelisted IP address range(s) into this field. Changes will be saved automatically and take effect IMMEDIATELY, so do not make changes to this setting unless you are accessing it from within the address range you will add. (If an admin accidentally locks themselves out of the system, they can email [email protected] to request restrictions be removed. Such a request must be sent from an email address associated with an admin account.)
- Can Users Override?: No (admin only setting)
Minimum Password Length
Enter the minimum number of characters for your users' passwords. The more characters, the more secure the password. Any change to the Minimim Password Length will affect only those users changing their password after the change is made.
- Default Value: 8 characters
- Account Setting: Enter the new number of minimum characters a user's password must be. The new value must be greater than 8, and will take effect for all new passwords. Any already existing passwords with fewer characters will still be allowed, but if the user resets/changes their password, the requirement will take effect then.
- Can Users Override?: No (admin only setting)
Expire Passwords After Days
The number of days a user can have a password before it must be replaced at next login. To not expire your users' passwords, enter 0 here. If you do expire your users' passwords, users will also be prohibited from selecting any previously used password.
- Default Value: 0 (Passwords do not expire)
- Account Setting: Enter a number >0 to require users to change their passwords after X days.
- Can Users Override?: No (admin only setting)

Public User Label
A 'Public User' is what SecureVideo calls a user who is not part of your organization.

Schedule Through Clinics
If enabled, a host can schedule sessions only with users who would be able to request a session of that host through a virtual clinic, if a virtual clinic were enabled. This is a technique to implement the notion of Departments in large organizations, and is also a sensible setting to use for an account using Individual Clinic Associations.

- Account Setting:
- No: Users can view other account holders in the autofill for scheduling and chat (as long as "Show Hosts in Contact List" is not also set to "No").

Show Hosts in Contact List
If Show Hosts in Contact List is enabled, then session hosts will be able to see the names of your other account users in order to easily schedule sessions with them.

- Default Value: Yes

- No: This setting will not appear to users.
Show 'New Session' buttons at the top of the dashboard
The buttons hosts use to create a new session are shown at the bottom of the dashboard by default, because most hosts access existing sessions for often than they create new sessions. However, if your hosts will have a lot of sessions on their dashboard, or will generally follow the pattern of Create Session > Connect to Session > Delete Session, then it would make sense to show the 'New Session' buttons at the top of the dashboard (select 'Yes' to do this).

- Yes: Receive a notification whenever a participant clicks to enter the waiting room.
- No: Do not receive a notification when a participant clicks to enter the waiting room.

Please note that lack of video may affect reimbursability and/or clinical scenarios; consult regulations applicable to your use. This setting only affects customers using the Zoom videoconferencing engine.

Use Join Before Host (Zoom accounts only)

If No, Participants will see the message 'Please Wait for the Host' until the Host connects. Once the Host connects, there may be a delay of up to 30 seconds before every Participant is connected. When No, the amount of time the participant waits for the host to start the session will not count toward the duration of the session.
- Default Value: Yes
