Address filter element. Optional in <rule>
elements. Overrides attribute::ClientAddressFilter when the rule is applied.
None.
Comma-separated list of IP addresses. Each individual address may include an optional netmask suffix to allow specification of IP address ranges. See attribute::ClientAddressFilter for details.
Access to this image catalog can be restricted to one or more specific IP addresses by specifying them in an <addressfilter>
element. A “request refused” error is returned to the client if the client IP address is not matched.
Access is not restricted if <addressfilter>
is empty or not specified.
If the <expression>
in the <rule>
element is absent or empty, the <addressfilter>
is applied to all requests.
localhost
is always implicitly part of the ClientAddressFilter
definition, even if not explicitly specified. Requests originating from localhost
are never rejected, regardless of the ClientAddressFilter
specification.
