Hi Team, I have created CEP 33 - CIDR filtering authorizer https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CASSANDRA/CEP-33%3A+CIDR+filtering+authorizer <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CASSANDRA/CEP-33:+CIDR+filtering+authorizer>.
Purpose of this feature is to add the ability to restrict users accesses based on the client’s IP (or region). We can map set of CIDRs to CIDR groups (aka, regions), and then enable or disable roles to access from certain CIDR groups. CEP page details why are we doing this and how. Please go through it, comment here on the discussion thread and vote. For your reference, code for this feature is at https://github.com/apache/cassandra/pull/2414 <https://github.com/apache/cassandra/pull/2414>. PR description contains an example usage. Thanks, Shailaja
