Doc Text:
The *LocalAddress* and *LocalPort* keywords are now supported for *Match* conditions in *sshd_config* Systems connected to several physical networks might require different access policies. With this update, you can enforce different policies for different local addresses or ports directly in *sshd_config*, without the need to run several services with different configuration files.

Description Pat Riehecky 2015-04-14 14:53:36 UTC 
Description of problem:
OpenSSH 6.1 adds an additional Match condition set for LocalAddress and LocalPort

Can these conditions be backported to RHEL6?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):openssh-5.3p1-104.el6_6.1


How reproducible:100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Look to use Match LocalAddress
2.
3.

Actual results:
feature not present

Expected results:
this is a backport request, so this feature - while useful - was not originally present within the 5.3 release.

Thank you for taking time to fill this feature request. We appreciate the feedback and look to use reports such as this to guide our efforts at improving our products.
But this bug tracking system is not a mechanism for requesting support. Please, raise a ticket through your regular Red Hat Support to achieve correct attention and prioritization. Pushing new features requires appropriate business justification.
Comment 3 Jakub Jelen 2015-08-25 12:01:10 UTC 
Please, connect with your regular support if it is still actual for you. Now moving to the next release.
Comment 4 Pat Riehecky 2015-08-25 13:25:25 UTC 
I will reach out to those folks.

Rebased upstream patch

Rebased patch for our version from these upstream commits (with upstream test case):

    https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/commit/?id=fbcf827559b38f7992e1bd0bcdc4b4ccdf63bc74
    https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/commit/?id=301390316cf73fc50d769691ed7f95c21ea6646a

Upstream testsuite passes on my testing build. I think we can cover also this one in the next release. The patch is not large, makes the Match handling more transparent and doesn't look like breaking anything.
