mands from Nuke through. The default value is

Enabled
checkbox
If checked, Mari can receive commands through
the specified port.
The default state is
disabled.
Mari Command Port
|
Local Host Only
checkbox
If unchecked, Mari can listen for connections to
its command port from any machine.
If this is checked, then Mari only listens for con-
nections from the local machine.
• Only allowing connections from the local host is
more secure but prevents you from using fea-
tures, such as the Nuke<>Mari Bridge.
The default state is
enabled.
