Override IP address space mappings

Computer and userIntune-readyLocalNetworkAccessIpAddressSpaceOverrides

Supported on Microsoft Windows 7 or later

What it does

This can be used to treat certain internal address ranges as "public" and thus not subject to Local Network Access checks. Conversely, this can be used to treat certain public address ranges that might be used internally as "local" so that they are protected by Local Network Access checks. IP address space overrides have two forms: [cidr]=[public|local|loopback] where [cidr] is a IP address range in CIDR notation (see section 3.1 of https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4632 for IPv4 and section 2.3 of https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4291 for IPv6). IPv6 addresses must be specified in URL-safe (bracketed) format. CIDR overrides apply to all ports. or [ip-address]:[port]=[public|local|loopback] For more information on Local Network Access, see https://wicg.github.io/local-network-access/ and https://developer.chrome.com/blog/local-network-access. This policy does not support dynamic refresh. Overrides from the command-line switch --ip-address-space-overrides take precedence over overrides set by this policy. Example value: 100.64.0.0/10=public [2001:db8::]/32=local 192.168.0.1:8000=public [2001:DB8::8:800:200C:417A]:8080=local
