vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/phpmyadmin.conf

<Directory /usr/share/phpMyAdmin/>
   <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
     # Apache 2.4
     <RequireAny>
       Require ip 127.0.0.1
       Require ip ::1
       Require ip 192.168.0.6
     </RequireAny>
   </IfModule>
   <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
     # Apache 2.2
     Order Deny,Allow
     Deny from All
     Allow from 127.0.0.1
     Allow from ::1
     Allow from 192.168.0.6
   </IfModule>
</Directory>
 

5. Restart httpd service.
