In the past, access to the bastion host was restricted to static IP addresses belonging to the users with access. This worked well for users with a (semi-)static IP address, but introduced a lot of friction for users on most residential internet connections in Europe (e.g. when accessing the server from their home). Due to this friction, we have decided[^1] to drop the IP filter.
