l IsValidHostnameCidr – Checks that the value is a valid IP address or hostname, which may also have an
optional /N suffix indicating the network prefix length in bits (CIDR notation).
l IsValidHostnamePort – Checks that the value is a valid IP address or hostname, which may optionally
include a port number specified with the syntax hostname:port.
l IsValidIpAddr – Checks that the value is a valid IP address.
l IsValidLdapAttribute – Checks that the value is a valid LDAP attribute name; that is, a string that starts
with a letter, and which contains only letters, numbers, underscore (_) and hyphen (-).
l IsValidNetmask – Checks that the value is a valid network mask in dotted-quad notation; that is, an IP
address such as 255.255.255.128 that contains a single string of N 1 bits followed by (32 – N) 0 bits.
l IsValidNumber – Checks that the value is numeric; that is, an integer or a decimal value. The validator
argument may be an array containing one or more of the following additional options:
n no_negative – if set to true, negative numbers are not accepted as a valid value.
n no_zero – if set to true, zero is not accepted as a valid value.
n only_integer – if set to true, decimal numbers are not accepted and only integer values are valid.
l IsValidPassword2 – Checks that the value is a valid password that satisfies certain requirements. The
validator argument must be an array describing which of the following requirements to check. To perform
any password checking, the “minimum_length” and “complexity_mode” fields must be specified.
n password2 – specifies the name of the field containing the duplicate password entry (optional, for
password validation). Defaults to “password2” if not specified.
n password2_required – if nonzero, indicates that the “password2” entry must be supplied.
n username – specifies the name of the field containing the username. If empty or unset, the password is
not checked against this field for a match.
n minimum_length – specifies the minimum length of the password in characters.
n disallowed_chars – if set, specifies characters that are not allowed in the password.
n complexity_mode – specifies the set of rules to use when checking the password.
n complexity – if set, specifies rules for checking the composition of the password. If unset, defaults to a
preset value for password complexity with modes “none”, “basic”, “number”, “punctuation” and
“complex”. These rules check that passwords obey certain requirements according to the following table:
Rule Set Min. Length Description
none – No special requirements
basic 8 Non-space characters
number 8 At least 1 digit
punctuation 8 At least 1 punctuation character (non-alphanumeric)
complex 8 At least 1 digit, 1 non-alphanumeric, 1 uppercase and 1 lowercase letter
Table 126: Complexity Requirements
l IsValidSentence – Checks that the value is considered to be a ‘sentence”; that is, a string which starts with
an upper-case letter and ends in a full stop.
