Please tell me.
I will be connecting two or three DMR repeaters (SFR) to the same TG via pi-star.
Of course, anyone can connect directly to the repeater via radio waves and access other repeaters connected by TG.

However, is it possible to restrict connections to the TG from anyone other than authorized stations via the Internet?

I understand that it is a wonderful system that allows anyone with an amateur license to connect freely via the Internet.
However, the problem is that there are always a certain number of people who try to play pranks.
There is nothing we can do if tampering is done directly with the repeater, but I wanted to at least defend the area of the network that is easily accessible.

On TGIF the admin, of a particular talkgroup, can restrict access to any DMR ID, can restrict to those with security credentials on the network, or leave it wide open.

Thank you for your response.
Does that mean I have to ask the administrator? Or does that mean the user who has been issued a TG can get the authority to manage it?
I have already obtained a TG with TGIF.

If you are the one who requested the TGIF talkgroup, then you are the admin of that talkgroup. Log in on the TGIF webpage. In the upper right hand corner, click on your callsign. Click on manage talkgroup then select the talkgroup you requested. You will then see your admin controls.
