Private network requests are requests whose target server’s IP address is more private than that from which the request initiator was fetched. For example, a request from a public website (
https://example.com) to a private website (http://router.local), or a request from a private website to localhost.
My “non-developer” understanding - tablo start’s public my.tablotv.com which in turns gets a response from https://api.tablotv.com/assocserver/getipinfo/ this provides the browser with your local networks IP of your tablo and connects to your private network HTTP no S!
Starts with a public address… ends up with a private address. I kind of think when you access your router or media streaming on your router – you access directly via a private address internally on your LAN. They even provide an illustration.
A suggested work-around includes:
If the subresource is served from a private IP address, serve the embedder website from a private IP address as well.
If the subresource is served from localhost, serve the embedder website from localhost as well.
If it’s all within a private address - on your LAN, it’s a non-issue. (?)
Again, non-developer, non-network administrator.
