This form is used to create an IP-limited user key for the purpose of publishing exports from the gradebook. A valid user key enables a user whose IP is not included in the IP restriction value to download exports from the gradebook without having to log into Moodle.
For example, a student having been given such a valid User key would be able to download his/her grades in a given format by simply reaching a specified URL, without needing to enter log-in details. This makes it possible to create scripts that periodically download grades, email the results etc...
Note that all capabilities are in full force when downloading grades in this way, so a student will not be able to download another user's grades, or hidden grades etc.
