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.
There are three blocks of IPv4 addresses that are suitable for private use. The address range of those blocks hasn't changed. The three blocks are: 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 (65,536 IP addresses) 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 (1,048,576 IP addresses) 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 (16,777,216 IP addresses)
I wasn't thinking of IP addresses - - - rather I was thinking of something like example.com but not that. Trying to come up with something so that if machine 1 has the server program that machine 2 can access machine1 just by using machine1 in the browser. So far I've only found example.com and I'd rather not use that. I likely asked the question poorly but also didn't have any idea how to better phrase the ask - - -sorry. Thanks for the ideas though!
