Setting IP Security Using System.DirectoryServices

Setting IP Security Using System.Di...

Set IP security to configure IIS to restrict client access based on IP addresses or DNS host names. Configuring IP security modifies the IPSecurity metabase property.

Example Code

The following example shows you how to use the C# programming language to enumerate the IPSecurity property at a node in the IIS metabase, and add a new restriction.

This example requires Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 or Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1.

Note:
System.DirectoryServices can be used to get and set String and DWORD properties in the IIS metabase, and invoke most methods. However, you cannot set restriction properties unless you are using Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2 or Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1.

To keep this code example concise, it does not include code access security (CAS) parameters or parameter checking. For more information, see Code Access Security and Validating User Input to Avoid Attacks. Additionally, you can instantiate your System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry object with an authentication parameter.
