Deny access by IP or network card.

Hello. I installed TwonkyServer on my server. My server has one NIC, and it created 2 vlan. The first vlan for ISP, 2 vlan for my home network. So my server has 3 IP addresses. IP of ISP, IP on my home network and external IP on the Internet.
Anyone can get access to my photos and video from the Internet or from a network provider.
How can I make sure that access was only through a single IP address on my home network?
Thanks in advance.

On the command line when you start twonkyserver you need to bind it to a specific ip address with the -ip comand line option. This can also be set in the ini file.

Now of course the bigger question is why are you doing it this way and not using a router.

Tell me in detail about the command line. how to do this?

This is the server (windows), on which the Twonky is a router. Connected to a managed switch.

From support:

Hello,

We can manually assign the ip address to the TwonkyServer. This information is saved in the twonkymedia-server.ini file.

In Windows it is usually present at :-

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\twonkymedia
or C:\Application data\twonkymedia\

This folder is normally hidden so enable the hidden files and folders and then try to look for the mentioned file. Open twonkymedia-server.ini file in the notepad and then there would be an option of # IP address to listen to (default: all networks) ip= ,
type the ip address before it, Save changes to the file and then close it. Now when ever you want to open TwonkyServer you have to go to :-

http://ip-address-of-your-server:9000/config


Thanks. :)
