+ single: Security; Restrict Security Firewalls to a Host
+
+How to restrict Firewalls to a Specific Host
+============================================
+
+.. versionadded:: 2.4
+ Support for restricting security firewalls to a specific host was added in
+ Symfony 2.4.
+
+When using the Security component, you can create firewalls that match certain
+url patterns and thereby restrict access to all urls matching these patterns.
+Additionally, you can restrict a firewall to a host using the ``host`` key:
+
+.. configuration-block::
+
+ .. code-block:: yaml
+
+ # app/config/security.yml
+
+ # ...
+
+ security:
+ firewalls:
+ secured_area:
+ pattern: ^/
+ host: admin\.example\.com
+ http_basic: true
+
+ .. code-block:: xml
+
+
+
