Thanks for the reply!

Yes, that is correct.
But since I cannot use arbitrary headers, these options aren't viable for me.  
Basically, I need to restrict the same Location, via a single restriction 
(preferably via IP subnets), using an explicit defined Header from 50% of web 
traffic [Netscaler], and the REMOTE_ADDR (or whatever mod_access uses to get 
the client IP) [BigIP] from the other 50%, at the same time; SetEnvIf will only 
help me with the Netscaler traffic.  I need a single solution to handle both 
scenarios.

Thanks,
- Jeff

mod_rewrite or mod_setenvif can do access control based on arbitrary
headers.  So assuming you have an X-Remote-IP header, you could do
SetEnvIf X-Remote-IP ^10\..* good-guy
SetEnvIf X-Remote-IP ^172\.16\..* good-guy
SetEnvIf X-Remote-IP ^192\.168\..* good-guy
and then add
Allow from env=good-guy
to the above block.

Joshua.
