Django ALLOWED_HOSTS IPs range

Question

Is there a way to set a range of ALLOWED_HOSTS IPs in django?

Something like this:

ALLOWED_HOSTS = [\'172.17.*.*\']

Answer 1

I've found such solution for filtering range of IPs:

Using this approach we can filter IPs by any means (f.e. with regex).

from django.http import HttpResponseForbidden

class FilterHostMiddleware(object):

    def process_request(self, request):

        allowed_hosts = ['127.0.0.1', 'localhost']  # specify complete host names here
        host = request.META.get('HTTP_HOST')

        if host[len(host)-10:] == 'dyndns.org':  # if the host ends with dyndns.org then add to the allowed hosts
            allowed_hosts.append(host)
        elif host[:7] == '192.168':  # if the host starts with 192.168 then add to the allowed hosts
            allowed_hosts.append(host)

        if host not in allowed_hosts:
            raise HttpResponseForbidden

        return None
