Is that local or remote single IP you want to allow access?

local, i just type in the ip address of that device in Lan networks?

Yes, IP or IP/32>untick "Allow remote access...">Save.

what does IP/32 mean? (again sorry for being a dumdum)

Netmask for single IPv4 address (32 bits=4x8 bits=4 numbers), meaning all numbers in that IP address must match.
