It is not clear to me what you mean by "open our DSpace repository."

It sounds to me as though you want a user at an unapproved address to
receive either an ICMP connection refusal or no response at all.  You
may be able to do that using firewall rules.  That is beyond the scope
of DSpace.

You could get Tomcat to refuse to route the request using a Tomcat
host address filter or valve.  Again that is outside of DSpace.

DSpace IP authentication adds user group memberships to sessions
originating at specified IP addresses.  You can use that group
membership to grant or refuse access to specific assets stored in
DSpace, but not to DSpace itself.
