Authentication & Authorization

VMS
ORION-141549: When setting read/write host-based access rules in a view policy, you can now prepend an IP, a range of IPs or a subnet with a tilde (~) to make VAST Cluster deny access from this IP(s). The tilde can be used both in VAST Web UI and in VAST CLI. Note that only Read/Write rules support this functionality.
