Remote access

Requirements

The server, i.e. the central nVision program, must run on a static IP address.

Remote access tunneling in nVision

nVision listens on new TCP port 4436. During the installation, this port is configured only for Windows Firewall (to learn more, go to the Ports topic).

The Agent establishes a connection with nVision – and the connection is maintained and used for communication. Therefore, remote access is available even if nVision cannot establish a direct connection to the Agent (e.g. the machine with the Agent is behind NAT). Remote access tunneling also works in nVision WebAccess.
