Temporary redirect to maintenance page

Solution 1
You need to write rule for all request except maintenance file.
.htaccess should be:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/maintenance\.html$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://domain.com/maintenance.html [R=307,L]
Solution 2
What I do is to redirect all traffic to a maintenance.html page when it's not coming from my IP.
The first rewrite condition avoids an infinite loop.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/maintenance.html$
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^172\.16\.254\.1$
RewriteRule $ /maintenance.html [R=302,L]
Solution 3
It works, I tried it. It will redirect all requests to a maintenance page.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} !^123\.456\.789\.000
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/maintenance.html$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(jpe?g?|png|gif) [NC]
RewriteRule .* /maintenance.html [R=302,L]
</IfModule>

I am trying to write a rule to redirect all URLs to a temporary page so that some site updation could be done, but it ends up in an infinite loop.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)mysite\.com$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^(.*)temp$ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com/temp [R=307,L]
How to check if it's a temp page?
