Short History/Background for my Question:

Once upon a time, as I was newbie to ZAP, I started to run Pen-Tests on my own bare matal server at home behind random ISP's router, where my web-server was connected to and reached by DynDNS.

The Nightmare began the next day, when at work (out of home) I wanted to reach my web apps: the FW+IDS+AV system at work die warn me about the "malicious ip address/domain-name" and did not let me visit any host/vhost on my server!

The Solution was a long and intensive time consuming process to get my domain-name and ip out of some FW/IDS/AV producer's databases!

Since then I start pen-tests on a kali notebook which cannot access WAN/Internet (prohibited by router + no gateway + no dns + all websites/apache-vhosts  are registered with local ip adresses in hosts file + ...)

My Problem:
ZAP calls  `zapCallBackUrl`  while pen-tests but cannot reach the zap server. 

My Questions:
  1. Are there any other services/links which ZAP tries to connect to while pen-tests? If yes -> which?
  2. Does anyone have or know any  to-do-list for doing pen-test from LAN without spoil the reputation of my domain-name (DynDNS), ip address and/or ssl cert?
  3. Is there anything else I should care about to have a thoroughly pen-test without ruin the mentioned reputations (in context of landing on FS/IDS/AV databases/black-lists)?
Thank you in advance and pardon me for my long letter.
Kind regards
