Description

Installs a PAM module that controls access by IP address, MAC address, or country and region code. Administrators can use it to add network-aware restrictions to authentication flows.

Use it only when login policy should depend on network origin or location rules. Mistakes can block legitimate users or create false confidence, so test policies before enforcing them broadly.
