Motion - Config Option Control Localhost

control_localhost

  • Type: Boolean
  • Range / Valid values: on, off
  • Default: on
  • Group: Obsolete

Limits the http (html) control to the localhost. This option must be placed in motion.conf and not in a thread config file.

This option has been replaced by webcontrol_localhost

By setting this to on, the control using http (browser) can only be accessed on the same machine on which Motion is running.
