Summary

The authorization providers implemented by mod_authz_host are registered using the Require directive. The directive can be referenced within a <Directory>, <Files>, or <Location> section as well as .htaccess files to control access to particular parts of the server. Access can be controlled based on the client hostname or IP address.

In general, access restriction directives apply to all access methods (GET, PUT, POST, etc). This is the desired behavior in most cases. However, it is possible to restrict some methods, while leaving other methods unrestricted, by enclosing the directives in a <Limit> section.
