ASP.NET MVC block a specific URL from the Default route

Question

In ASP.NET MVC route configuration is like below:

routes.MapRoute(
    name: "Default",
    url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
    defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

I am using [Route] attribute in Controller:

[Route("login")]
public ActionResult Login()
{
    return View();
}

I can go to the page using both /login and Auth/Login. The second link is clearly from the default route, but I don't want that URL to go to my login page.

How can I do that?

To block a route from being served, you can use IgnoreRoute as long as you place it before the route you want to block:

routes.IgnoreRoute(url: "Auth/Login");

// Register any custom routes here...

routes.MapRoute(
    name: "Default",
    url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
    defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
