This library provides classes for controlling IP access in your programs. You can use it to build your own routines for checking IP addresses against access lists or simply use altered sockets implementation which is also shipped with this library.
- Maintaining IP access lists based on rules; see IPAccess::List.
- Grouping input/output access lists into sets; see IPAccess::Set.
- Automating access checks and raising exceptions; see IPAccess::Set.
- Many formats of IP addresses accepted; see IPAccess.to_cidrs.
- Variants of socket handling classes with IP access control; see IPAccess::Socket and IPAccess::Net.
- Methods for patching native socket handling classes; see IPAccess.arm.
- Methods for patching single network objects; see IPAccess.arm.
- Bases on the library NetAddr and uses trees to store data.
There are two classes used to evaluate IP access:
IPAccess::List and IPAccess::Set.
First class maintains a list of rules and methods for checking whether given IP matches them. Second class is more general – it throws exceptions and distinguishes between incoming and outgoing IP traffic. That's because it maintains two access lists.
The classes described above do not interfere with any network classes and/or objects unless you code them to do that. However, this library also provides special variants of socket handling classes that use IPAccess::Set instances to control access of the real TCP/IP traffic in an easy way.
Total control:
require 'ipaccess/net/http'
require 'open-uri'
# Add host's IP by to black list of global output access set
IPAccess::Set::Global.output.blacklist 'example.org'
# Arm all future sockets used by Net::HTTP
IPAccess.arm Net::HTTP
# Open URI
open 'http://example.org/'Access management for specific socket objects:
# load patched sockets
require 'ipaccess/socket'
# assume IP given by untrusted user
ip_from_user = '192.168.5.5'
# create new access set
acl = IPAccess::Set.new
# blacklist private and local subnets
acl.output.block :private, :local
# create TCP socket with IP access control
socket = IPAccess::TCPSocket(ip_from_user, 80, acl)- https://github.com/siefca/IPAccess

gem install ipaccess
