Greetings
Can't find any somewhat current information (less than 2 years old) on what kind of an address to use on a server where its only for use by lan members - - - NOT for outside use.
What I'm finding is at best 5 or 6 years old and then there is the stuff that's more like 10 or more years old. Debian has moved from iptables to nftables as of the latest release of stable (Buster or 10) and I haven't been able to find anything.
Maybe try wiki.debian.org. For example, https://wiki.debian.org/nftables.
Had looked at that one - - - - didn't find it very informative. Suggested the use of firewalld yet that isn't what was actually part of the system. It may be possible that ufw will also work as a 'kinder' front end to nftables just as it did for iptables. Found a few posts that suggest that that is possible but little concrete evidence. Therefore the questions. Thanks
