can someone clarify this will redirect the two ip ranges and also redirect
to the homepage with htaccess:

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} .
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.comRewriteRule (.*)
https://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

RewriteEngine On
Rewritecond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^212\.6\.7\.8$ Rewritecond %{REMOTE_ADDR}
^213\.7\.7\.8$ RewriteRule .* http://www.example.com/404.html [R=301,L]

redirect to the homepage?
The above would redirect anything that isn't accessing the site via the host
name www.example.com (i.e. by IP address) to the URI they were requesting at
https://www.example.com/
e.g (if your site is at 1.2.3.4)
http://1.2.3.4/here would be 301ed to https://www.example.com/here

This will not do anything, a request cannot come from 213.6.7.8 AND
213.7.7.8 at the same time so your condition will never be met, you want:

Rewritecond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^212\.6\.7\.8$ [OR]
Rewritecond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^213\.7\.7\.8$
RewriteRule . http://www.example.com/404.html [R=301,L]

Suppose as well as the redirection I wanted to make forbidden for the two
ips, and redirect them to another page, would something like this work:


Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} .
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com
RewriteRule (.*) https://www.example.com/$1[R=301,L]

ErrorDocument 403 http://www.example.com/index2.html
