Description

Controls which website origins are blocked from making Local Network Access requests to local network endpoints.

Network requests initiated from websites that match the specified URL patterns are blocked from issuing Local Network Access requests.

For origins not covered by the patterns specified in this policy, the user's personal configuration applies.

For detailed information about valid URL patterns, see https://learn.microsoft.com/deployedge/edge-learnmore-ent-policy-url-patterns.

For more information about Local Network Access restrictions, see https://wicg.github.io/local-network-access/.

- LocalNetworkBlockedForUrls
- LocalNetworkAllowedForUrls
- LocalNetworkAccessBlockedForUrls
- LocalNetworkAccessAllowedForUrls

This policy controls access to local network endpoints (private IP addresses) and can be used to block specific websites from accessing local network resources.
