I want the WildFly console to be accessible from only my PC. The WildFly is running on an Ubuntu based server on rack space. I want to access it with my windows running machine. I tried the following interface with both my public and private IPs:

<inet-address value="${jboss.bind.address.management:192.168.0.100}"/>

but it only allows me to access when I use the following in the management and public interface, which obviously can be a security breach:

<any-address/>

So, how can I allow only one IP?

Can you not just use ? – Gabor Lengyel Sep 11 '16 at 22:28
and this IP should be my public IP? – MDaniyal Sep 12 '16 at 15:55
yes, as that's the IP the server will see – Gabor Lengyel Sep 12 '16 at 16:49
Ok Thanks, let me check if it works :) – MDaniyal Sep 12 '16 at 17:09
Is `192.168.0.100` the address the local IP for the server or your Windows machine? – James R. Perkins Sep 12 '16 at 22:13
@JamesR.Perkins It's the IP of my Windows Machine, but it can not be my local IP, it should be public. – MDaniyal Sep 15 '16 at 04:24
That's not going to work then. The address is the address for the server to bind to not accept requests from. If you want to filter requests from a specific IP you'll likely have to do at the OS level. – James R. Perkins Sep 15 '16 at 16:27
@JamesR.Perkins, Thanks for the help, I allowed `` and restrict the IPs from IP tables :) – MDaniyal Sep 15 '16 at 17:24
