Summary0008036: Filter out submissions based on IP address
DescriptionIn the last few days, some anonymous person has been submitting builds to the continuous/nightly/experimental of VTKEdge. I already sent a post to the mailing list to ask the submitter to fix its builds because (s)he does not follow the instructions on the FAQ. This person is not fixing its builds and did not identify himself/herself. It just makes the dashboard page noisy for nothing.

Right now, as an admin of VTKEdge I can remove the submissions manually but I
would prefer to have some option in cdash to filter out submissions based on IP addresses. Some kind of firewall at the project level.

Can we filter by sitename and buildname? Filtering by IP address is tricky with firewalls, etc...

Why is it more tricky by IP address than by sitename/buildname?
When I click on a sitename, cdash shows a page with the IP address.

We had this issue, when forwarding the submission (previously from public.kitware.com) where the IP address is actually the IP of the server forwarding the request (which is normal behavior). We can totally filter by IP but it might not work in certain CDash configuration. I was suggesting sitename/ buildname blacklist to make it more general, but I guess we can add IP address as well.

Combination of IP+sitename+buildname is probably the best.
