Describe the bug
The default value for mmSetCliOption("host", "tcp://*:33333") is the loopback adapter. It is unreasonable that the remote console is bound to the loopback adapter by default.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Start MegaMol
  2. Run netstat -ano
  3. See that the console is bound to 127.0.0.1:3333

Expected behavior
The remote console should be bound to the any address in order to allow for remote access.

Environment

  • Windows 10
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti

With #1157 now at least the host config is within the default config file and could be easily edited. Changing the default to accept any remote connection is probably very bad from security perspectives. At least until somebody implements authentication on the remote console.
