Ubuntu Add trusted sites / "Mimic" the IE Security tab on Linux Ubuntu

Hello, I'm new here and although I have used Linux environments here and there for many years (mainly at college) I'm far from being a "pro". I spent hours searching this question, so I hope I won't repeat threads (chances are low though).

The question is: how can I mimic or replicate the behavior of the Windows Internet options / IE options, under the security tab to add an URL to the Local Intranet?

Long explanation: I work as a performance tester (a new one, for whom asks why am I asking this silly question) and I must access a website through a VPN, and that way the server "sees" my computer under its own network and let me access to a webserver that I must test. The thing is, after hitting the main page a login popup appears, breaking the consistency of the script we're recording. A developer passed me a tutorial saying that "adding that URL to the Local Intranet would avoid the appearance of the login popup".

For those who don't know what I'm talking about, here a couple of screenshots (I obscured the customer's URLs for obvious reasons):

Thanks in advance.

PS: yes, I know for sure on Linux these settings must have a different name, but the tutorial I read was written by a dev using a Windows environment and I really don't know how to match "for-dummies" Windows settings with "lower" level settings on Linux.

NAME
xfce4-popup-windowlist - shows the Xfce window list applet popup SYNOPSIS
xfce4-popup-windowlist [ -pointer ] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the xfce4-popup-windowlist command. xfce4-popup-windowlist shows the Xfce window list if at least one Xfce window list applet is present on one of your panel(s). The default behaviour is to show the window list near the applet button. If you have several Xfce window list applets, only the first one you have set up will pop up. If you want to pop up the window list without using the window list applet on your panel(s), see the manual page for xfdesktop(1). OPTIONS
-pointer The window list appears at your current mouse position instead of its default position. SEE ALSO
