You can't. Authentication is by design separate from IP addresses.

What you can is to add restrictions to the logged in user after
authentication have completed. The ip_user external acl helper is an
example of this but far from the only kind of restriction you can
add.

To accomplish the above goal you need two programs accessign the same
database.

  1. authentication, checking the login+password
  2. authorization, verifying if the login is accepted by the other
criterias
