IP registration and updates

Administrators can update, add, and delete the IP addresses associated with their organisation. If you are working with IPv6 you need to update these on the platform to avoid access issues.

To do this from an authorised IP address. Open the Institutional Administration interface in the user profile. Select the IP Ranges section and configure the IP information as required.

You can also update the list of IP addresses for your organisation by completing this form.

Updates via PSI IP Registry

You may be aware that we have been receiving IP address updates from our subscribers via  for a while now. Many institutions have found the service easy to use and very time effective as you are able to update multiple publishers simultaneously. This means that your changes will be fed automatically through to our authentication management system and your updates will be activated within two hours of approval by theIPregistry.org.

The first step is to register for free at  and confirm the IPs currently registered to your institution. To communicate any IP address updates, simply log in to your account and add or delete the relevant IP address(es). The updates will be checked and verified before they are updated on our publishing platform and you’ll get an immediate error message from theIPregistry.org if there are any issues with the IPs you are entering.

If you have any questions, please email access@royalsociety.org.

Usage statistics

In order to generate usage statistics for your institution you must have an administrative account with us. If you are unsure of your account details, please email access@royalsociety.org.

To run usage reports navigate to the appropriate tab at the top of your administrative account and ensure the correct parameters are in place. You can access historical reports under the "Archive reports" section of your administrative account.
