Port forwarding via router
In order for the query from SwyxIt! out of the Internet to be forwarded to the SwyxRemoteConnector server on the company network, the forwarding needs to be configured on the company router (or NAT gateway) from the public "IP address:port" to the IP address of SwyxServer and TCP-Port 16203.
The following table illustrates an example configuration for a company network with only one public IP address:
Port forwarding to...
Public IP address:TCP port
Target IP address:TCP port
SwyxRemoteConnector on the SwyxServer
205.0.0.1:16203
192.168.0.2:16203
SwyxRemoteConnector as separated service
205.0.0.1:16203
192.168.0.16:16203
SwyxStandby server
205.0.0.1:57203
192.168.0.3:57203
Port forwarding to the authentication service
In addition to the port forwarding to the RemoteConnector, the port forwarding to the authentication service must also be configured on the company router.
Fig. 26-2: Establishing connections via authentication service
The "public IP address(:port)" combinations must be entered into the Client connection settings. SwyxIt! automatically uses port 9101 if you don't specify a port. If there is also a valid resolvable DNS name on the Internet for the public IP address, then you can also use that in stead of the public IP address.
The following table illustrates an example configuration:
Port forwarding to...
Public IP address:TCP port
Target IP address:TCP port
Authentication Service
server.net:9101
192.168.0.4:9101
