The Ignore local traffic within the LAN option enables NetWorx to take into account only your Internet traffic, excluding all local communications. Technically this means that all traffic between the following addresses is ignored (these IP address ranges can be changed):

IPv4:

10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
169.254.0.0 to 169.254.255.255
224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255

IPv6:

fe80::/10
fc00::/7
ffx2::/16

Additionally the driver reports to NetWorx what applications use bandwidth: when this option is on, you can see your usage per application in Usage Report > Applications.
