That sound wrong. If your RequireAll was working as advertised, should it not return a 403?

Perhaps a RewriteCond that depends upon certain IPs, then otherwise redirects to the production site? I don't think relying on the IPs is a good idea, since those will change, and the proper process to validate them requires 2 DNS lookups, if I'm not mistaken. Just use a rewriteCond + rewriteRule to generously check the User-Agent and perform the redirect. You may have to set an environment variable in the rewrite rule and check that in your RequireAll statement to permit the 301 response to be sent. You may want to verify that the Vary:User-Agent response header gets sent to the client to prevent cache pollution.
