I don't want to manage users or roles, preferably. I have only one user: staff. I want to prevent the public from accessing the admin UI. I'd be happy if I could set an IP address whitelist... especially if I don't have to learn a new framework (which I will never use for any other purpose) to do it. I don't know what master/slave is. These are new concepts that weren't required to secure Solr prior to 7x, and this is my first project using a version after 6x.
