So my firewall is OFF and my standalone.xml
contains
<interfaces>
<interface name="management">
<inet-address value="${jboss.bind.address.management:127.0.0.1}"/>
</interface>
<interface name="public">
<any-ipv4-address/>
</interface>
<interface name="unsecure">
<inet-address value="${jboss.bind.address.unsecure:192.168.56.1}"/>
</interface>
</interfaces>
Running netstat
gives
C:\Users\Ram>netstat -an | find "8080"
TCP 0.0.0.0:8080 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
TCP 127.0.0.1:50200 127.0.0.1:8080 TIME_WAIT
Running telnet
from another computer connected to the network
C:\Users\Rami>telnet 192.168.56.1 8080

I can reach the server homepage typing http://192.168.56.1:8080/
on the computer that has the server started on but not from any other device connected to my local home network.
