IPv6 range specification for allow/deny

Hi,

I’d like to limit a range of IPv6 space to a “server” context using
“allow” and “deny”. I haven’t been able to find any information on how
to do this in the documentation, nor on the web. The only example I’ve
found[1] is for fixed IPv6 adresses like so:

allow 2620:100:e000::8001;

[1] http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpAccessModule

So far I have tried

allow 2d00:1201::/32
allow [2d00:1201::]/32

but nginx configuration validation complains. Is this IPv6 ranges
possible to allow/deny? What is the correct format? Any input would be
appreciated.

Thanks,
Jens

Hi,

Thanks for your link. Do you know which version that first had IPv6
ranges supported in allow/deny? I can’t seem to get it to work.

Cheers,
Jens

Just curious: what version do you use?

Hi,
allow [2d00:1201::]/32

IPv6 support for the “access” and “deny” directives appeared in
0.8.22 almost four years ago: http://nginx.org/en/CHANGES-0.8

Nowdays we ship 1.5.3 and 1.4.2 releases:
