Connection Options
Connections must be stopped in order to edit the following settings.
- Idle Timeout - how long to wait after there are no active tunnels before terminating the connection. This can help reduce data charges if your Devices are on a cellular internet connection. Set to "0" to never terminate.
- Routing - what type of connection to make
- Peer to peer with proxy failover - try a peer to peer connection first, then try a proxy connection if that fails.
- Peer to peer only - only attempt a peer to peer connection.
- Proxy Only - only attempt a proxy connection.
- Public proxy - creates a shareable address that is valid for 8 hours.
- Local Network Sharing - see LAN Sharing
- Proxy Connection - select this if you wish to share the Connection with another person. This overrides the "Routing" setting. If you select this, you next need to select the "Security" mode:
- IP Latching - the proxy connection will latch to the first IP address that connects after the proxy is created, blocking all others.
- None - the proxy connection will allow incoming connections from any IP address.
- Connection Logging - enable if needed in order to debug connections.
If connection logging is enabled, a button will appear called "Show Logs".
Click on "Show Logs" to open Explorer windows showing the log file locations. These can be copied to a support ticket if requested.
