For [Spectrum](/spectrum/) applications configured with the HTTP/HTTPS application type, IP Access rules are the only supported mechanism for filtering traffic by IP address, IP range, country, or ASN. To use them, enable IP Access rules in your [Spectrum app configuration](/spectrum/reference/configuration-options/#ip-access-rules).
