<h3>Summary</h3>
<p>The authorization providers implemented by <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_host.html">mod_authz_host</a></code> are
registered using the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#require">Require</a></code>
directive. The directive can be referenced within a
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#directory"><Directory></a></code>,
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#files"><Files></a></code>,
or <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#location"><Location></a></code> section
as well as <code><a href="core.html#accessfilename">.htaccess</a>
</code> files to control access to particular parts of the server.
Access can be controlled based on the client hostname or IP address.</p>
<p>In general, access restriction directives apply to all
access methods (<code>GET</code>, <code>PUT</code>,
<code>POST</code>, etc). This is the desired behavior in most
cases. However, it is possible to restrict some methods, while
leaving other methods unrestricted, by enclosing the directives
in a <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#limit"><Limit></a></code> section.</p>

<h2><a name="requiredirectives" id="requiredirectives">The Require Directives</a> <a title="Permanent link" href="#requiredirectives" class="permalink">¶</a></h2>
<p>Apache's <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_authz_core.html#require">Require</a></code>
directive is used during the authorization phase to ensure that a user is allowed or
denied access to a resource. mod_authz_host extends the
authorization types with <code>ip</code>, <code>host</code>,
<code>forward-dns</code> and <code>local</code>.
Other authorization types may also be
used but may require that additional authorization modules be loaded.</p>
<p>These authorization providers affect which hosts can
access an area of the server. Access can be controlled by
hostname, IP Address, or IP Address range.</p>
<p>Since v2.4.8, <a href="../expr.html">expressions</a> are supported
within the host require directives.</p>
<h3><a name="reqip" id="reqip">Require ip</a></h3>
<p>The <code>ip</code> provider allows access to the server
to be controlled based on the IP address of the remote client.
When <code>Require ip <var>ip-address</var></code> is specified,
then the request is allowed access if the IP address matches.</p>
<p>A full IP address:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require ip 10.1.2.3
Require ip 192.168.1.104 192.168.1.205</pre>
<p>An IP address of a host allowed access</p>
<p>A partial IP address:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require ip 10.1
Require ip 10 172.20 192.168.2</pre>
<p>The first 1 to 3 bytes of an IP address, for subnet
restriction.</p>
<p>A network/netmask pair:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require ip 10.1.0.0/255.255.0.0</pre>
<p>A network a.b.c.d, and a netmask w.x.y.z. For more
fine-grained subnet restriction.</p>
<p>A network/nnn CIDR specification:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require ip 10.1.0.0/16</pre>
<p>Similar to the previous case, except the netmask consists of
nnn high-order 1 bits.</p>
<p>Note that the last three examples above match exactly the
same set of hosts.</p>
<p>IPv6 addresses and IPv6 subnets can be specified as shown
below:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require ip 2001:db8::a00:20ff:fea7:ccea
Require ip 2001:db8:1:1::a
Require ip 2001:db8:2:1::/64
Require ip 2001:db8:3::/48</pre>
<p>Note: As the IP addresses are parsed on startup, expressions are
not evaluated at request time.</p>
<h3><a name="reqhost" id="reqhost">Require host</a></h3>
<p>The <code>host</code> provider allows access to the server
to be controlled based on the host name of the remote client.
When <code>Require host <var>host-name</var></code> is specified,
then the request is allowed access if the host name matches.</p>
<p>A (partial) domain-name</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require host example.org
Require host .net example.edu</pre>
<p>Hosts whose names match, or end in, this string are allowed
access. Only complete components are matched, so the above
example will match <code>foo.example.org</code> but it will not
match <code>fooexample.org</code>. This configuration will cause
Apache to perform a double reverse DNS lookup on the client IP
address, regardless of the setting of the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#hostnamelookups">HostnameLookups</a></code> directive. It will do
a reverse DNS lookup on the IP address to find the associated
hostname, and then do a forward lookup on the hostname to assure
that it matches the original IP address. Only if the forward
and reverse DNS are consistent and the hostname matches will
access be allowed.</p>
<h3><a name="reqfwddns" id="reqfwddns">Require forward-dns</a></h3>
<p>The <code>forward-dns</code> provider allows access to the server
to be controlled based on simple host names. When
<code>Require forward-dns <var>host-name</var></code> is specified,
all IP addresses corresponding to <code><var>host-name</var></code>
are allowed access.</p>
<p>In contrast to the <code>host</code> provider, this provider does not
rely on reverse DNS lookups: it simply queries the DNS for the host name
and allows a client if its IP matches. As a consequence, it will only
work with host names, not domain names. However, as the reverse DNS is
not used, it will work with clients which use a dynamic DNS service.</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require forward-dns bla.example.org</pre>
<p>A client the IP of which is resolved from the name
<code>bla.example.org</code> will be granted access.</p>
<p>The <code>forward-dns</code> provider was added in 2.4.19.</p>
<h3><a name="reqlocal" id="reqlocal">Require local</a></h3>
<p>The <code>local</code> provider allows access to the server if any
of the following conditions is true:</p>
<ul>
<li>the client address matches 127.0.0.0/8</li>
<li>the client address is ::1</li>
<li>both the client and the server address of the connection are
the same</li>
</ul>
<p>This allows a convenient way to match connections that originate from
the local host:</p>
<pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Require local</pre>
<h3><a name="proxy" id="proxy">Security Note</a></h3>
<p>If you are proxying content to your server, you need to be aware
that the client address will be the address of your proxy server,
not the address of the client, and so using the <code>Require</code>
directive in this context may not do what you mean. See
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_remoteip.html">mod_remoteip</a></code> for one possible solution to this
problem.</p>
