Question:

User may not be allowed to access an application from a specific IP address. Is there a way to block user from a specific IP when accessing an application?

Answer:

This can be done by editing application policy script (Cloud Manager > Apps > Click on the target app > Policy > Script):

if(context.ipAddress == 'XX.XXX.XX.123'){
trace("allowed ip");
policy.Locked = false;
}
else{
trace("non-allowed ip");
policy.Locked = true;
}
}

If a number of IP addresses need to be blocked, the following script can be used instead:

var ipArray = ['XX.XXX.XX.24', 'XX.XXX.XX.335', 'XX.XXX.XX.183'];
if(ipArray.indexOf(context.ipAddress) >= 0){
trace("allowed ip");
policy.Locked = false;
}
else{
trace("non-allowed ip");
policy.Locked = true;
}
}

Note: IP range cannot be defined in the script.
