I did this recently for an item but it looks like you could do it for a collection as well. For an item, Edit > Status > Authorizations and the first policy should be the item policy, where you can change Anonymous to your IP group. Then the item should be visible only to that group, but not the public. For a collection, I have not tested it, but try Edit > Authorizations to edit the groups. Or try Access Control and apply a condition to the metadata. In this case there may be some work to get your IP group listed as one of the access conditions in the drop-down.

Our use case: Requiring student Id login via Shibboleth authentication to view a test bank. Suggestion: Any students that login via Shibboleth are assigned to a user group that has read access for the collection. Not sure if this is the way to go about it though! Any guidance would be appreciated.

For that I created a group named ipdata and provide authorization to that. Attached screnshot below I havn't added any user to group from authentication.cfg plugin.sequence.org.dspace.authenticate.AuthenticationMethod = org.dspace.authenticate.IPAuthentication and from authentication-ip.cfg authentication-ip.ipdata = 1.2.3.4 Now If I want to access that collection from any ip other than 1.2.3.4 , then it is showing all data. I also created new items after changes , that also not helped How will I restrict all ip's other than required Any help is highly appreciated Salony Permanand Mob: 7275838206<tel:(727)%20583-8206> -- All messages to this mailing list should adhere to the Code of Conduct: https://www.lyrasis.org/about/Pages/Code-of-Conduct.aspx --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DSpace Technical Support" group.
