How do I know that only I can access UMS?

Post by adam1992p »

Hello,

I'm getting a lot of media renderers that I definitely don't own and are probably my neighbors. What I need to know is whether or not these unknown renderers have the same access to my PC that I do? How can I be certain that only I'm accessing my files and nobody else? Thanks for your help.

On the "General configuration" tab, you can add IP whitelist.

Read more about more security options UMS here: viewtopic.php?t=2266

Edit: Be ware that the IP of the device can change. You CAN instead do some filtering by uuid : viewtopic.php?f=9&t=8558
