#1638 Accept external connections

Hi

I cant make ZAP to listen traffic from external devices in the same network

I am using an iphone, redirecting the traffic through ZAP, but no traffic is captured

It works fine when capturing traffic from the browser in the same computer where ZAP runs

Is there any option for ZAP to accept traffic from an external device? In Fiddler there is an option called "Allow remote computers to connect", but cant see it here

Thanks

By default ZAP listens on 127.0.0.1
If you change this to the externally accessible IP address of your device then you should be able to connect to it, firewalls notwithstanding ;)
You change the IP address via the 'Local Proxy' options screen: https://code.google.com/p/zaproxy/wiki/HelpUiDialogsOptionsLocalproxy

ZAP just listens to the address that is specified in the "Local proxy" options panel.
If you want ZAP to listen to external traffic you can sepcify the address of the interface that you want, for example, address 192.168.0.25 (instead of localhost or 127.0.0.1).
If you want ZAP to accept traffic from all interfaces/addresses (of the host) at once you should leave the field empty.
