Moonraker uses the trusted_clients list in the [authorization] section of its configuration to specify IP addresses authorized to connect to the API. You need to identify the allowed IP range and add it to this list. To check which IP addresses are requesting access to Moonraker, you can review the moonraker.log file. Look at the end of the moonraker.log file (this file should be located at ~/printer_data/logs/moonraker.log) and you should find these lines:
In the first line, you can see the client IP that attempted to connect. In this case, the IP address is 192.168.0.31.
Next, you need to add the IP address or IP range to the moonraker.conf file. To allow an entire network, use in the configuration file. For the example IP range above, enter 192.168.0.0/24, which will permit all clients with IPs from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.254 to connect to Moonraker. You can make these changes via SSH or by using an SFTP program like FileZilla. The [authorization] section should now look like this:
