Username and IP restricted login

Hi

 

 

I want to restrict access to a website login page so that it can only be accessed by certain usernames (e.g User1-Ops, User2-Ops, etc) and only if they access from a list of allowed IP addresses.

 

 

Does anyone have any examples of what im looking for?

 

 

thanks

    Hi Youzzer,

     

     

    I wrote a Tech Tip on an HTTP basic access authentication iRule a while back. You can add a second datagroup for username/IP address pretty easily. Here's the Tech Tip:

    would this work?

     

     

    when HTTP_REQUEST {

     

     

    if {([HTTP::method] eq "POST") && ([HTTP::uri] eq "/login.aspx") && (![matchclass [IP::client_addr] equals $::trustedAddresses])} {

     

    HTTP::collect [HTTP::header "Content-Length"]

     

    }

     

    }

     

     

    when HTTP_REQUEST_DATA {

     

    set sema "no"

     

    switch -glob [URI::decode [URI::query "?[HTTP::payload]" username]] {

     

    "*-Ops*" {

     

    set sema "yes"

     

    }

     

    }

     

    if { $sema == "yes"} {

     

    HTTP::respond 200 content {

     

     

     

    HTML page settings to show the following text:

     

     

    You can’t login from your current location.

     

     

    }

     

    }

     

    }

    This works fine although i want to prevent case problems with the username. How can i use [string tolower] with the above example for the username?

     

     

    Any ideas?

     

     

    Thanks
