Trados Business Manager – End of Life Announcement

Trados Business Manager (TBM) has reached end of life. Following the discontinuation of TBM sales on 31 October 2023, all maintenance and support services will conclude on 31 October 2024.
What Does This Mean for TBM Users?

  • End of Services: RWS will no longer provide any services related to the installation or updating of TBM.
  • Existing Installations: TBM will remain functional where already installed, but the RWS support team will not offer assistance in troubleshooting issues, addressing reported problems, or providing further development for TBM.
  • Documentation: The TBM documentation has been removed from docs.rws.com.
  • Community Support: The community forum for TBM will remain accessible in a read-only format for users to reference if needed.

Limit access by IP addresses

TBM allows to specify a list of IP addresses allowed to access the application. If a user will try to access TBM from a non-listed IP-address, then the following page will be displayed:

To configure this functionality, you must have access to a server where application is installed. Open TBM installation folder and find appsettings_global.json file. Open it in any text editor and find a setting named AllowedIPAddresses. If this setting is missing, you can add it manually - do this with care to keep correct json file structure. Here is an example of this file with this setting specified:

Note. IP-address corresponding to localhost (allowing you to access the application locally) should be written as "::1" (two colons followed by one)

Multiple IP-addresses should be separated by semicolon.

After you finish editing application settings file, please restart application pool in IIS to reload configuration and apply changes. After that, try to access application from a non-listed IP-address to confirm that everything works correctly.
