This is now a feature toggle hidden behind a PlexPass sub, you used to be able to do this on the free version until the changes in 2025 to make remote access a chargeable feature.

Scroll to "LAN Networks"

"Very few people will need to set or change this preference. It simply lets you specify which IP addresses or networks will be considered to be “local” to you..."

"Tip!: This feature requires an active Plex Pass subscription for the Plex Media Server admin Plex account. Addresses can be specified either as an individual IP address or a range (using IP/netmasks). Do not include spaces or tabs."
