17.2.2.2. Access Control
Option fields also allow administrators to explicitly allow or deny hosts in a single rule by adding the
allow
or deny
directive as the final option.
For instance, the following two rules allow SSH connections from
client-1.example.com
, but deny connections from client-2.example.com
:
sshd : client-1.example.com : allow sshd : client-2.example.com : deny
By allowing access control on a per-rule basis, the option field allows administrators to consolidate all access rules into a single file: either
hosts.allow
or hosts.deny
. Some consider this an easier way of organizing access rules.
