To protect system assets, prevent unauthorized access, and lower the risk of attack, it often makes sense to limit user connections to a specific IP address or range of addresses. For your Laravel application, an IP address block can prevent a disruptive address from access, though a warning and/or account block may be used first. Dynamic allocation of IP addresses by ISPs can complicate incoming IP address blocking, rendering it difficult to block a specific user without blocking many IP addresses (blocks of IP address ranges), thereby creating collateral damage.
Key Features
Laravel IP Restriction flow
- The User sends the request to access some resource on your Laravel Site.
- As soon as the user sends request, The IP address of the user will be fetched.
- This IP address will be compared with the list of IP addresses that the user has permitted or denied access to the Plugin.
- If the IP address are available in the Whitelisted IPs then the User will be able to access the resources.
- If the User’s IP address is available in the Blacklisted IPs then the User will be shown a ‘403 Forbidden’ error message.
