    You can do it through your .htaccess file

    Example (replace rss.xml with the name of your rss file):

    
# IPs Range: 64.124.122.224 - 64.124.122.255
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr "^64\.124\.122\.2(2[4-9]|[3-5][0-9])"  ilikeit
# IPs Range: 217.22.96.0 - 217.22.97.255
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr "^217\.22\.9(6¦7)\."  ilikeit
# IP 38.100.208.101
SetEnvIf Remote_Addr "^38\.100\.208\.101"   ilikeit

<Files "rss.xml">
   Order Deny,Allow
   Deny from all
   Allow from env=ilikeit
</Files>
    Code (markup):
