Interface ConnectionFilter


  • public interface ConnectionFilter
    Interface defining a generic IP level connection filter.
    Due to the fact that this task depends heavily on application context, I chose a very generic way of applying IP level connection filtering.

    Implementations should consider following issues:
    • performance
    • administration (maybe via an admin shell)
    • logging denials

        Parameters:
