Hi,

I have to perform authentication in web service means only selected IP's will have access to web service. I have to match that IP's from the database.

For that do i need to write that code in the Web Method or is their any other optimized way for this.

I am using this code for getting Client IP.

string sClientIP = Request.ServerVariables["HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR"];

if(sClientIP == "" || sClientIP == null)

sClientIP = Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];

Please help.......

Solution 1

Get the client's IP, and call a stored proc with that IP as a parameter, and return the appropriate record (if found). If no records were returned, it's an invalid IP.

There's no "optimization" needed.
