Enabling and Disabling Remote Access

Setting the Listening Port #

84
When remote access is enabled, a user can connect to 3DM over the internet
or an intranet, to check status or administer the controller and associated
drives. (See "Viewing 3DM Remotely Using a Web Browser" on page 75.)
If remote access is disabled and a user attempts to connect to 3DM remotely,
they will see the following error message: "Remote Access to 3DM has been
disabled. Please connect using the local machine by entering "localhost" in
the URL bar."
Remote access can be enabled or disabled on the 3DM 2 Settings page.
The VMware version of 3DM is installed with remote 3DM access enabled by
default, since VMware has no GUI to let you run it locally. If you disable remote
access, you will need to reinstall 3DM in order to be able to connect to it.
