Glad that helped. When you run the server without an (--address) argument it only listens on localhost (127.0.0.1) and is not accessible by other computers but when you specify an address the server becomes accessible to other computers over the network and your firewall detects that and prompts you. Keep in mind that if you tell your firewall to allow all traffic to the dev server then other users on your network could access it (whether this is good or bad depends on who is on your network).
