Is it possible to block certain IP addresses in Tomcat?

Thanks for pointing to the great source! Oh by the way (for everyone trying this method), you have to restart your Tomcat instance for the IP restriction to take effect. Futhermore, you can replace deny by allow to only allow certain IP's rather than only blocking certain IP's.

Can you replace localhost with IP address?

Go to File > Open. Open this file C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. Put the name and IP address you want your website to go with this format: IP alias. Save.

How do I access Tomcat on localhost?

Access the Apache Tomcat console by browsing to http://localhost:8080/ (if installed as a non-root user) or http://localhost/ (if installed as the root user).

Several connectors are configured, and each connector has an optional "address" attribute where you can set the IP address.

  1. Edit tomcat/conf/server.xml.
  2. Specify a bind address for that connector:
     <Connector      port="8080"      protocol="HTTP/1.1"      address="127.0.0.1"     connectionTimeout="20000"      redirectPort="8443"    />
