I am working on one website build on Umbraco 7.1.6
Now i need to published the website. So user can access it.
Now the main concerns is that I don't want external user to bee able to access Umbraco backoffice through URL like below
www.<mydomain>.com/Umbraco/
I know i can restrict the IP in IIS for specific IP addess. But it's causing the issue in my website.
In my website i have used AJAX call on some methods with ANTI FORGERY stuff. So restrict the IP in IIS , stop the functionality on my website where i have used AJAX call.
Is ther any other way i can prevent external user to browser Umbraco back office ?
I don't think the issue is that you are using "anti forgery stuff"?
Which URL do you need to be accessible? As you say AJAX I assume you call SurfaceControllers?
If this is the case you could try the following:
Use the URL Rewrite module in IIS and create a new rule, which only allows access from your specified IPs to the URL /umbraco. Exactly this URL, and not an URL that starts with umbraco. All URIs in the backend are hashes, which don't get send to the server.

Thanks,
