Context filters are executed before webapp filters. I believe (but not confirmed) that valves execute before the filters.

A few reasons why not to do this as a servlet filter:

1. There are many web apps on the server and I don't want to include the
filter in each.
You don't have to. Configure it in the global web.xml.

Are the filters configured in conf/web.xml considered "before" those in
WEB-INF/web.xml... that is, will they be called before the
webapp-defined ones?

2. There are other valves like request filters that cannot work without the
correct IP, as well as custom login valve.
Filters should be OK providing they are defined in the right order.

Aren't all Valves always called before Filters?
