<p>Access control can be done by several different modules. The most
important of these are <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html">mod_authz_core</a></code> and
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_host.html">mod_authz_host</a></code>. Also discussed in this document
is access control using <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_rewrite.html">mod_rewrite</a></code>.</p>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="host" id="host">Access control by host</a> <a title="Permanent link" href="#host" class="permalink">¶</a></h2>
<p>
If you wish to restrict access to portions of your site based on the
host address of your visitors, this is most easily done using
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_host.html">mod_authz_host</a></code>.
</p>
<p>The <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#require">Require</a></code>
provides a variety of different ways to allow or deny access to
resources. In conjunction with the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#requireall">RequireAll</a></code>, <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#requireany">RequireAny</a></code>, and <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#requirenone">RequireNone</a></code> directives, these
requirements may be combined in arbitrarily complex ways, to enforce
whatever your access policy happens to be.</p>
<div class="warning"><p>
The <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_access_compat.html#allow">Allow</a></code>,
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_access_compat.html#deny">Deny</a></code>, and
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_access_compat.html#order">Order</a></code> directives,
provided by <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_access_compat.html">mod_access_compat</a></code>, are deprecated and
will go away in a future version. You should avoid using them, and
avoid outdated tutorials recommending their use.
</p></div>
<p>The usage of these directives is:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require host <var>address</var>
Require ip <var>ip.address</var>
</pre>
<p>In the first form, <var>address</var> is a fully qualified
domain name (or a partial domain name); you may provide multiple
addresses or domain names, if desired.</p>
<p>In the second form, <var>ip.address</var> is an IP address, a
partial IP address, a network/netmask pair, or a network/nnn CIDR
specification. Either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses may be used.</p>
<p>See <a href="../mod/mod_authz_host.html#requiredirectives">the
mod_authz_host documentation</a> for further examples of this
syntax.</p>
<p>You can insert <code>not</code> to negate a particular requirement.
Note, that since a <code>not</code> is a negation of a value, it cannot
be used by itself to allow or deny a request, as <em>not true</em>
does not constitute <em>false</em>. Thus, to deny a visit using a negation,
the block must have one element that evaluates as true or false.
For example, if you have someone spamming your message
board, and you want to keep them out, you could do the
following:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config"><RequireAll>
Require all granted
Require not ip 10.252.46.165
</RequireAll></pre>
<p>Visitors coming from that address (<code>10.252.46.165</code>)
will not be able to see the content covered by this directive. If,
instead, you have a machine name, rather than an IP address, you
can use that.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require not host <var>host.example.com</var>
</pre>
<p>And, if you'd like to block access from an entire domain,
you can specify just part of an address or domain name:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require not ip 192.168.205
Require not host phishers.example.com moreidiots.example
Require not host gov</pre>
<p>Use of the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#requireall">RequireAll</a></code>, <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#requireany">RequireAny</a></code>, and <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#requirenone">RequireNone</a></code> directives may be
used to enforce more complex sets of requirements.</p>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="env" id="env">Access control by arbitrary variables</a> <a title="Permanent link" href="#env" class="permalink">¶</a></h2>
<p>Using the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#if"><If></a></code>,
you can allow or deny access based on arbitrary environment
variables or request header values. For example, to deny access
based on user-agent (the browser type) you might do the
following:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config"><If "%{HTTP_USER_AGENT} == 'BadBot'">
Require all denied
</If></pre>
<p>Using the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#require">Require</a></code>
<code>expr</code> syntax, this could also be written as:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require expr %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} != 'BadBot'</pre>
<div class="note"><h3>Warning:</h3>
<p>Access control by <code>User-Agent</code> is an unreliable technique,
since the <code>User-Agent</code> header can be set to anything at all,
at the whim of the end user.</p>
</div>
<p>See <a href="../expr.html">the expressions document</a> for a
further discussion of what expression syntaxes and variables are
available to you.</p>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="rewrite" id="rewrite">Access control with mod_rewrite</a> <a title="Permanent link" href="#rewrite" class="permalink">¶</a></h2>
<p>The <code>[F]</code> <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewriterule">RewriteRule</a></code> flag causes a 403 Forbidden
response to be sent. Using this, you can deny access to a resource based
on arbitrary criteria.</p>
<p>For example, if you wish to block access to a resource between 8pm
and 7am, you can do this using <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_rewrite.html">mod_rewrite</a></code>.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond "%{TIME_HOUR}" ">=20" [OR]
RewriteCond "%{TIME_HOUR}" "<07"
RewriteRule "^/fridge" "-" [F]</pre>
<p>This will return a 403 Forbidden response for any request after 8pm
or before 7am. This technique can be used for any criteria that you wish
to check. You can also redirect, or otherwise rewrite these requests, if
that approach is preferred.</p>
<p>The <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#if"><If></a></code> directive,
added in 2.4, replaces many things that <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_rewrite.html">mod_rewrite</a></code> has
traditionally been used to do, and you should probably look there first
before resorting to mod_rewrite.</p>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="moreinformation" id="moreinformation">More information</a> <a title="Permanent link" href="#moreinformation" class="permalink">¶</a></h2>
<p>The <a href="../expr.html">expression engine</a> gives you a
great deal of power to do a variety of things based on arbitrary
server variables, and you should consult that document for more
detail.</p>
<p>Also, you should read the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html">mod_authz_core</a></code>
documentation for examples of combining multiple access requirements
and specifying how they interact.</p>
<p>See also the <a href="auth.html">Authentication and Authorization</a>
