Public Private Speedtest

The name contradicts itself, but I wanted to know if it’s possible to use a self-hosted speedtest.net system and restrict the access to that site.

Is there a way for only authorized clients to use the public/private speed test? We don’t want unauthorized pseudo clients consuming unnecessary amounts of bandwidth.

Furthermore, I’m not too familiar with Apache or nginx to build a login system. It would be nice to pull AD credentials which would then give authorization to perform a speedtest.

Does this idea sound feasible? Any advice is much appreciated.
