checkmk linux agent >= 2.2 - how to allow only specific ip address to query the agent on port 6556?

tested with agent version 2.2:

check IP allowlist

cmk-agent-ctl status
Version: 2.2.0p22
Agent socket: operational
IP allowlist: any
Legacy mode: enabled
No connections

current solution: use agent bakery to restrict the access to specific ip address, not yet tested how to configure it manually - in the past / with older
clients it was very easy (xinetd settings etc.)
