Blocking access to certain URI except from IP Address

Hi All,     I am trying to block access to the admin sections of my website, unless the request comes from one of my public IP addresses.     The rule I tried to implement looks like ...
application delivery
dev
devops
irules

I got it working using a HTTP::respond statement. The reject statement was causing problems and was blocking all traffic instead of just the Admin URI. I also removed the URL section from the beginning as this iRule is only applied to a single VIP.

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { ( ( [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] equals "/provider/faces/provider.jspx" ) or ( [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] equals "/faces/admin.jspx" ) or ( [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] equals "/reporting/BOE/BI" ) ) and not( [matchclass [IP::remote_addr] equals $::MyIPAddressRange ] ) } {

 

HTTP::respond 200 content "URL Denied"

 

return

 

}

 

}
