English term or phrase: a clock of IP addresses
The service allows you to set start and stop dates/times, perfect for time-sensitive content. You can also limit access to a clock of IP addresses.

How can I translate "a clock of IP addresses" in French? Can we speak about "horloge" too? I can't find the exact translation for this. Thanks!

a clock of ip addresses
Limiter l'accès à l'horloge pour certaines adresses IP


Explanation:
Le sens de cette phrase apparaît plus clairement si on modifie l'ordre des mots : "You can also limit access of IP addresses to a clock", au lieu de "You can also limit access to a clock of IP addresses"

disagree  Martin Cassell: sorry, but it seems to me you're jumping through hoops to justify a faulty source text. Your propsed answer would make no sense technically. Common sense and Occam's principle say it's "block".

  -> Sorry for this misunderstanding, I proposed a possible alternative to what is for you "sensibility". I just "opened a door". You can see it in my answer, I am not very sure of my proposal. Even not sure, better proposing with carefulness than nothing !

Explanation:
Il ne s'agit pas d'une erreur de frappe. Il faut effectivement lire "clock"
Citation extrait d'un site reprenant exactement la phrase :

"Media Vault allows you to set start and stop dates/times, perfect for time-sensitive content. And since each URL is unique to each user request, it can’t be copied and emailed to unauthorized individuals. You can also limit access to a clock of IP addresses. Best of all, Media Vault controls don’t result in server latency, thanks to a token-based system that avoids unwanted three-way handshakes, common to other methods of authentication.

disagree  Ambrose Li: Actually, your reference *proves* that it’s a typo. See the context in “Media Vault features” at the end.
