Add all local IP-adresses to positive list?

[Jass]

Hey out there,

is there any possibility to add all local ip adresses to positive list expcept writing them into by hand?

If you're referring to a home network (LAN), why would you need this? My scanner has a local IP, as does the wireless computer. But when scanning, the scanner doesn't need to run scripting in the *browser*. It's an application that has already been installed *on the computer*, with firewall local permissions, etc.

If you're referring to two or more computers on your LAN, why would one need to run scripts on the other? Your use of Shared Folder permissions, etc., governs what files and folders can or cannot be copied/modified/deleted by another machine. In Windows Pro versions, Group Policy Editor controls permissions of workstations on the LAN, and similarly for other platforms.

Again, scripting is a *browser* issue here. Why would one computer run scripting *in the browser* of another on the same LAN?

Subnet matching - an address with a partial numeric IPv4 IP will match all the subnet. You must specify at least the 2 leftmost bytes, e.g. 192.168 or 10.0.0. Again, matching sites will be temporarily allowed on demand.

however this only applies when accessing by ip

Thanks al_9x, it works great!

@Tom T.
I don't want to configure an antivirus software or a personal firewall. The problem was that I've got a mobile device with changing IP and a small webserver I want to access. It's not possible or practicable to use fixed IP for this device so I always had to add the actual by DHCP given IP adress to the positive list.

And instructing the DHCP server to reserve an IP for that device was not an option?

People, its a valid request and a plausible situation where something like this would be needed. Although in this case the user is trying to address the changing dynamic ip, there are situations where you need access to web based config panels on various devices on your network all of whom will have some form of 192.168.x.x and its easier to just whitelist that range rather than allow the scripting on those panels on each ip. Also if you are a developer dealing with local servers you might need this as well by default in many cases, imagine a client/server intranet situation. Just provide the information and not be so offensively defensive with the reply.
