Comment:
The attached patch implements the described capability. The help from the
notebook? output is:
{{{
- ``subnets`` -- (default: None) a list of strings that define
subnets;
if given, requests to the notebook server from ip addresses
that are not in any of the listed subnets are ignored. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subnetwork for more about subnets.
An example input is ``subnets=['192.168.1.0/24',
'216.34.0.0/16']``,
which accepts any address of the form ``192.168.1.*`` or of the
form ``216.34.*.*``. For serious use, you may want to instead
use your operating system's firewall, which is probably more
robust and reduces the load on the server.
}}}
NOTE: The patch includes ipaddr.py, which I understand will be in the next
(major?) Python release, at which point it could be removed from sagenb
(though this could impact standalone use). Note that ipaddr.py is
licensed PSF, so is OK to include. It's copyright is owned by Google, I
think.
