Question

Is it possible to authenticate users based on their IP?

Answer

There is a patch for login based on IP.

This is made for only one user, but you get the idea of how to do it.

This patch gets the IP address and the corresponding user from the site.ini.append.php file. (Patch is for 3.5.1)
