# Please note that the servlet path to the soap API has changed:
<Location /webservices>
    # restrict access to the soap provisioning API
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.1
    # you might add more ip addresses / networks here
    # Allow from 192.168 10 172.16

If you want to secure your Apache setup via HTTPS (which is highly recommended) or if you have proxies in front of your Apache please follow the instructions at:

 * X-FORWARDED-PROTO Header
 * Grizzly configuration

to properly instruct the backend about the security status of the connection and the remote IP used to contact the backend.
