Remote tab
The Cloud Portal can establish the following secure tunnel connections to a connected BMS Platform server:
- Web Manager
- Web visualization
- VNC
Secure tunnel connections for Web Manager and Web Visualization do not require any configuration, i.e. no opening of external ports.
In order to establish a VNC connection the Tight VNC Server (https://www.tightvnc.com/download.php) needs to be installed locally on the machine running the BMS platform. In addition VNC loopback connections have to be allowed in the TightVNC Service Configuration → Access Control → Loopback Connections → Allow loopback connections. A password for VNC remote access should always be used!
