Allow access to `/-/metrics` `/-/liveness` `/-/readyness` without token when client matches whitelist
When accessing /-/metrics
/-/liveness
/-/readyness
remove the need for token when client ip matches a white list.
Current token access has following benefits:
- provides good protection out of the box, as even in Gitlab installed they will still be protected
- allows dynamic/shared ips to be able to access token protected resources
- can be easily revoked, quickly stopping unauthorized access.
However it has some downsides as well:
- requires the need to handle the token in automation tools like Chef to be able configure monitoring tools properly
- when token is changed all local monitoring tools will stop working
So to maintain the current benefits and mitigate the downsides. A IP whitelist allowing token-less access populated with defaults like: '[ /127../, /192.168../ ]' would take the best of both worlds.
