1. For users with multiple network cards or systems such as NAS or Docker where there is always another network interface which Plex client applications may try to use to connect to the Plex Media Server, with this option you can ensure that your local Plex clients would only try that interface.

!!! attention
If you have enabled Remote Access enabled and are having Plex automatically map the port (as opposed to specifying a port manually), then Plex Media Server has no control over which network interface is used for an automatically-mapped port. Thus, it’s possible that Remote Access connections could come through an interface other than the one specified here.

May prevent older clients from connecting. The vast majority of users will have no reason to enable this option (and receive no benefit from doing so).

For instance, if you have your own custom domain with subdomain.
