ngx_stream_access_module

Module ngx_stream_access_module

https://nginx.org/en/docs/stream/ngx_stream_access_module.html

The ngx_stream_access_module module (1.9.2) allows limiting access to certain client addresses.

Example Configuration

server {
    ...
    deny  192.168.1.1;
    allow 192.168.1.0/24;
    allow 10.1.1.0/16;
    allow 2001:0db8::/32;
    deny  all;
}

The rules are checked in sequence until the first match is found. In this example, access is allowed only for IPv4 networks 10.1.1.0/16 and 192.168.1.0/24 excluding the address 192.168.1.1, and for IPv6 network 2001:0db8::/32.
