Add or Remove Remote IP Address Ranges of Receive Connectors

Description

This script adds or removes IP addresses or IP address ranges to/from existing Receive Connectors.

The input file can contain multiple IP addresses (range), one entry per line. The IP address parameter can be used to add a single IP address.

The script creates a new subdirectory beneath the current location of the script. The script utilizes the directory as a log directory to store the current remote IP address ranges prior modification.

A log is written to the \log subfolder utilizing the GlobalFunctions Logger object.
