•PSPanelPort:「6001」

 

Router configuration

When connecting to an intranet from the Internet in an external environment, a fixed global IP address that does not change is required (alternatively, you can use a service such as DDNS).

In the router settings, set up port forwarding (opening ports) for packets from the WAN side to the LAN side.

 

•"Packets to port 6001 from the WAN side" → "Forwarded to port 6001 on Panel Server (192.168.1.10) in LAN"

 

For instructions on how to set up port forwarding on your router, please refer to the router manual.

 

 

 

attention

If there is a firewall on the network path, you must set it to allow port 6001. In addition, when selecting a router, it must be a model that supports port forwarding. For details on router settings and other information, please contact the manufacturer of the router you are using.
