Does anyone know if Tomcat can restrict access to certain application by IP address (like Apache's .htaccess)?

To set up access restriction to your web-application for the certain IP addresses, add the following strings to /opt/tomcat/webapps/{web-application name}/META-INF/context.xml file:

<Context antiJARLocking="true" path="/">
 <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteIpValve" />
 <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" deny="{IP_address}" />
</Context>

Here is the instruction how to do this via Jelastic panel. Be sure to restart your Tomcat for the changes to take effect.
