ipaccess.example

# CGI:IRC example ipaccess file. (For CGI:IRC versions from 0.5.3).
# To use this rename the file to ipaccess and in the CGI:IRC configuration
# set ip_access_file = ipaccess

# This file allows and disallows access to CGI:IRC based on IP address
# and/or hostname.
# It can be used to limit access to CGI:IRC to a certain IP range
# or to limit the number of connections from particular IPs.

# The file is read downwards and the first match for a particular mask is
# used so if *.*.*.* is the first line then all connections would be allowed.

# Format:
# ipmask limit
# ipmask is an IP address or mask (address containing *)
#       Note: An * in ipmask matches only numbers so it must contain three dots.
# limit is optional - it is the number of connections to allow from a
#       specific IP address that matches this mask, 0 allows no connections,
#       and so bans connections from the address.

# It is also possible to use hostnames, this is much the same as an IP address.
# The format is:
# hostmask limit
# The only difference is subnet masks are not possible and the * matches any
# character (even a dot).

# Examples (remove first # to enable)
#192.168.1.* 0 # Ban access from 192.168.1.*
#192.168.2.* 5 # Limit access from 192.168.2.* to 5 connections per IP address
#192.168.3.0/24 0 # Ban access from 192.168.3.0/24
#127.0.0.1 # Allow 127.0.0.1 (without any connection limit)
#*.example.com 0 # Ban all connections from example.com
#*.*.*.* 2 # Allow all connections but limit to 2 connections per IP address

# Remember you must add at least one allow line if you enable ip_access to
# allow clients to connect.
