Valves

[Ricardo Bayley <ri...@gmail.com>]

Hi folks,

I am new to tomcat.
I use a webapp which runs in tomcat. I would like tomcat to filter requests
according to remote host / address.
I understand I need to set "Remote Address Filter" and the "Remote Host
Filter" in the Valve component.

I read this articles but I don't understand where or which xml file to
edit.
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/valve.html
http://www.oxxus.net/tutorials/tomcat/tomcat-valve

Can anyone tell me where should I configure it ?

Any pointers are appreciated.


Warm regards,


Ricardo

You configure the <Valve> at the desired scope.  If you want it to affect only the one webapp, place it in the <Context> element for that webapp.  If you want it for a specific <Host>, place it there.  If you want it to operate on everything, configure it in the <Engine>.

Here the search result in tomcat 6.0 installation:

F:\Tomcat 6.0\conf

Searching for: valves
context.xml(32): <Valve
className="org.apache.catalina.valves.CometConnectionManagerValve" />
server.xml(19): define subcomponents such as "Valves" at this level.
server.xml(50): so you may not define subcomponents such as "Valves" at
this level.
server.xml(115): <Valve
className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RequestDumperValve"/>
server.xml(141): <Valve
className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="logs"
Found 5 occurrence(s) in 2 file(s)

Also,

look with your url below
http://www.oxxus.net/tutorials/tomcat/tomcat-valve
you will find the file name you looking for /conf/server.xml

<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RequestDumperValve"/>


To use the RequestDumperValve, you simply need to add this entry to the
Tomcat container that you would like to monitor. To see this valve in
action, open the current <TOMCAT_HOME>/conf/server.xml, uncomment the
previously listed line found in the Standalone engine, and restart Tomcat.
Now make a request to any of the applications found at
http://localhost:8080.
