Hello,

Thanks Daniel for your help. The permissions module looks exactly what I was looking for.
Right now I will have around 5 "fxed" IP addresses but in the near future I might have more than 20 trusted IP addresses. So, That's why I didn't want to use the if(src_ip==ipaddress...) logic :)

Cheers,

Miguel Baptista

Ps : see you on Monday in Berlin :)

Hi all,

I want to enable pike module based on IP addresses. I mean ... I don't
want to check if requests from some specific IP addresses trigged the
Pike's threshold. but for all other IP addresses I want to check it.
I was thinking about using some kind of IP addresses' whitelist. The
userblacklist module has some whitelist but it's based on
username/domain not IP addresses.

Can someone please give me some advice how to implement it properly. Is
there any module that will allow me to do it properly?

you can use permissions module.

if(!allow_source_address("grouptoskip")) {
# do the pike logic here
}

If you have 1-2 addresses that do not change, you can use if(src_ip==ipaddress...). Default config file for 3.1.0 comes with such logic.

Daniel
