Chapter 2: StrideLinx Cloud 2.0
Getting Started:
Connect to Your Machine
You will first establish a VPN connection to your router, and then you can
connect to your machine using your development software and any other
software you would normally use if you would be on-site.
In this Getting Started guide, we'll focus on using StrideLinx with a PC. You can also connect
using an Android or iOS mobile device, which is covered later in this chapter.
Before you Begin:
•
Make sure your device has a green dot in its Status column of the Devices list.
This indicates that the router is online and connected to the StrideLinx cloud.
Install the VPN Client software on your PC
The VPN client is a lightweight application that runs in the
background on your computer. It creates a virtual Ethernet port on your PC and handles all
communication between your PC, StrideLinx Cloud 2.0, and your remote machine.

Go to the Fleet Manager, which is accessible via the Apps menu
corner when logged into your StrideLinx account.

Run the downloaded installer and follow the steps in the installation wizard.
5.
Once the installation has completed, refresh the StrideLinx web page.

installed the VPN client, you are ready to make a VPN connection.

to the right for additional instructions.
