Final answer:
Salesforce login can be restricted by specifying Login Hours and Login IP Ranges. Login Hours define when a user can log in, while Login IP Ranges specify trusted IP addresses. The direct feature that restricts logins based on IP is the Login IP Ranges.
Explanation:
The feature that restricts a user's ability to log into Salesforce is determined by the organization's security settings. Among the various features available, two specifically address login restrictions:
- Login Hours - This feature defines the hours when a user is allowed to log into Salesforce. If a user tries to log in outside of these designated hours, access will be denied.
- Login IP Ranges - This feature allows the system administrator to specify which IP ranges are trusted. Users attempting to log in from an IP address outside of these ranges will not be able to access the system.
While Trusted IP ranges might sound similar to Login IP Ranges, they are set up in different contexts. Trusted IP ranges are usually set at the network level for an organization to limit where logins can occur from, but they do not directly restrict individual user logins. Password policies are also critical for security but they don't explicitly restrict the ability to log in, rather they define the complexity and expiration of user passwords.
The correct answer to the question is Login IP Ranges, which are directly configured to allow or restrict user access based on the IPs from which they are trying to log into Salesforce.
