access_restriction

Allows restricting search interface access to certain IPs/hosts.

Key: access_restriction
Type: String
Can be set in: profile.cfg, collection.cfg

Description

This option allows a search interface to be accessed only from systems with a certain domain name or IP address. The option is a comma-separated list of hostnames or CIDR ranges.

The user's IP address is matched against the values in the list. If the match is unsuccessful then they are denied access, or redirected to the access_alternate collection if one is defined.

The syntax of this setting is CIDR notation. e.g. 1.2.3.4/16

Default Value

access_restriction=no_restriction

This is a special keyword to indicate that there are no restrictions.

You may also use no_access to deny all access to the collection.

Examples

access_restriction=.csiro.au,1.2.3.4/32,2.2.2.0/24
