Thanks Mark for your kind reply. Would you a be bit more specific as I am a 
newbie? I am sorry if I had not been clear enough what I want to achieve. 
As far as I know that Apache level access is based on relative static 
path/url, it won’t know detail how kibana works. I would like to restrict 
access to 'some' of the kibana dashboards, not all. Is it possible to 
achieve by configuring on the Kibana side? If on the apache side, do I have 
restrict the specific URLs of the Kibana dashboard to the specific group of 
people, e.g. as follows.

<Location /someDir>
                Order deny,allow
                deny from all
                allow from 192.168.
                allow from 104.113.
      </Location>

      <Location /anotherDir>
                Order deny,allow
                deny from all
                allow from 192.168.
                allow from 104.113.
      </Location>

In this case, for example, if I want to restrict an URL like 
http://myESHost:9200/_plugin/kopf/#/!/cluster, what do I have to put after 
<Location /???>. Sorry if I have asked a very naive question.

Thanks again for your time.

Cheers!
Ruby
