It is necessary to deny access to the authorization page ([https://example.com/login](https://example.com/login)) and only allow access from certain IP addresses. ---

Hi @pr0g and welcome to our community. Funny enough, the same question has already been asked [2 days ago](https://forum.pydio.com/t/how-to-close-access-to-the-authorization-form/4732) and more or less answered by @GwynethLlewelyn 😃 If you don’t want to install a reverse proxy (like e.g. caddy v2, Apache or nginx…), such features are also embedded in the Enterprise distribution. ---
