The server
As you can see the client cannot access the RICS server PC directly, but must pass through the router and the
company firewall before reaching it.
In order to allow the RICS server to be reachable from outside, perform the following actions:
• Ensure that eventual FTP Windows services in the RICS server PC are disabled or that the port they use is different
from the port used by RICS (EDCS and FTP). If you are not sure how to change the ports used by Windows services
toy are advised to shut-down those services. To this end go to Control
Panel>Administration>Management of Computer and select Services and applications>Services.
At this point stop the FTP publishing service.
• Configure the firewall so that it enables the TCP ports used by RICS, in this example it must enable:
• FTP Port = 21
• EDCS Port= 2345.
• Configure the router table so that TCP/IP packets destined to the TCP ports used by the RICS server are send to the
station that is running the RICS server. In this example the table would look like this:
Port Destination
21 130.164.0.88
2345 130.164.0.88
• WWEnsure that in the RICS server programme a user profile has been created with the Enable Remote
access checkbox selected. In this case you need to create a user profile with username remoteuser003 and
password ricscs.
The client
The Client PC has a suitably configured modem.
Once RICS (client) has started, you create a new connection with the following settings:
• Logical name: Example station
• Connection type: Internet
• Address: specify the server IP address. In our example this is 157.87.98.12
• Select the Automatic log-in checkbox, with user name remoteuser003 and password ricscs (same profile
as a user created and configured on the server for this purpose)
• In the Options page choose Browse remote system and in the Download section choose the files that you
want to download (The setting must be one of these; you are advised not to download the History if the aim
of the connection is only to control the remote system and the analysis of data is unnecessary).
• Finally ensure that the EDCS and FTP ports in the Advanced page coincide with the settings on the server.
In the example the setting is EDCS Port=2345 and FTP Port=21. In the FTP service, considering that the
communication is filtered by a firewall, you are advised to select Passive Mode.
• Once you have created the new server, choose it on the list of Remote stations (Server) list and begin the
connection.
