<p>A system for classifying an Internet protocol (IP) address, including: a data store for storing client profile data associated with a client, the client profile data including an Internet protocol address of a server; and a processor for receiving a resolved Internet protocol address from the client, and determining whether the resolved Internet protocol address corresponds to a second server associated with the first server. The data store includes configuration data representing Internet protocol addresses corresponding to servers in a server farm, and the processor determines that the servers are associated and part of the server farm when the resolved IP address corresponds to one of the IP addresses of the configuration data. The resolved IP address is received with a client request, and the request is allowed when the second server is associated with the first server.</p> |
