# Whitelisting IPs

In this section, we'll walk you through the steps for managing IP whitelists. We recommend reviewing our 'IP Whitelisting' documentation beforehand to familiarize yourself with the concept.

Navigate to the 'Residential' section on the sidebar menu (<mark style="color:orange;">1</mark>), which brings you to the main dashboard for Residential Proxies.

From there, find the 'Whitelist' (<mark style="color:orange;">2</mark>) button. Clicking this button enables you to manage and edit your whitelist settings, where you can specify and manage whitelist entries.
