I wanted to setup a confluence for me and some limited organization, but confluence does not have that feature at the moment, and I was able to make it by modifying server.xml. |
In that case, you You can allow access to only certain IP Addresses by adding following line in server.xml:
Code Block |
---|
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" allow="127.0.0.1,|192.168.0.1,192.168.50.*" 10.*|116.112.149.2"/> |
The list of allowed IP addresses is a comma '|' seperated list. Wildcards are permitted in the list of IP addresses. Any IP which isn't included in this list will no longer be able to access Confluence.

Note
- If you're clients are using DHCP, your Confluence might be inaccessible due to the changes in the IP Address.
