I want to prevent access to the admin UI.

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.

Thanks!
