Chapter 2: StrideLinx Cloud 2.0
Connect to Devices Behind the StrideLinx Router
When your PC is connected to a StrideLinx router, a VPN connection is established between
the PC and the machine network behind the StrideLinx router. All devices on the machine
network behave as though they are located on the PC's local network.
Alternatively, specific services on the machine network can be configured for access via
StrideLinx without requiring a VPN connection. In this section, we'll cover how to set up and
use the following types of services through your StrideLinx router:
•
VPN Service (remote access to your machines as if you are on the same network)
•
VNC Service (remote screen sharing)
•
HTTP Service (access web pages served from your machine)
•
WebSocket Service (connect a WebSocket client on your PC to a WebSocket server on
your machine)
Please refer to Chapter 3 to configure the many device options from AutomationDirect.com.
Setting up access to services on your equipment is managed in the Fleet Manager app. To
open it, log in to your StrideLinx account and select Fleet Manager from the Apps menu
in the top right corner of the screen.
Using these services is managed in the Portal app. To open it, log in to your StrideLinx
account and select Portal from the Apps menu
The features in this section are accessed from the menu on the left side of each app. If the
menu is not visible on your device, open it with the main menu
