 |

Hello. How do I run abyss web server so that just computers on my lan can access it, and not from the entire internet, merely as an experiment.
I need to know how to block all ip addresses that isn't in my lan. E.g. 192.168.1.100-192.168.1.254

| Just use the "Computer Name" as the URL address. Don't forward the web ports on your router. |

DoIt-Yourselfer,
If you are behind a router, you should not configure portforwarding and there should be not risk to have people access your server remotely. Only computers on your LAN should be able to connect to it.
If for some reason your computer is directly accessible to the Internet (it is possible to have it receive incoming connections), you can configure the server to only accept LAN IPs by adding an IP access rule for the virtual path / (slash - the whole web site) and which allowed IPs is set to 192.168.1.100-192.168.1.254.
