I've init a project using vue/cli, and I run npm run serve, webpack starts successfully, and shows the infomation:

The Network address is my local ip, obviously. When I access my page with the address http://localhost:8451/, it worked; however, when I visit http://172.18.149.70:8451/, the page just kept loading and nothing shows.

127.0.0.1:8451 also worked.

Why this happened?

Since it isnt a loopback/local ip(127.0*, 192.168*) you might be hitting your firewall/router which probably isnt setup to allow traffic on that port – Patrick Evans Apr 07 '19 at 12:06
172.16-31.x.x and 10.x.x.x are local IP's too @PatrickEvans – Jaromanda X Apr 07 '19 at 12:08
you have to make it listen to `0.0.0.0` meaning "All Interfaces". Check this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/38175246/9691976 – Mohammad Kholghi Feb 08 '21 at 06:56
