You're referring to controlling access via the referrer, which is trivial
to spoof; I strongly recommend not using that approach.

The other concept to understand here is that you can require the traffic to
match a certain rDNS value.

If you still want to match the referrer, you can do so with <If, expr or a
RewriteCond.
