5. Establishing a VPN connection to your REX 100
Note
: In order for the following steps to work, the REX router must have already been
confi gured.
5.1 Establishing a VPN connection and transferring IP packages
After you log in successfully with shDIALUP, your online account will be opened.
Logged-in REX routers will be indicated with a green circle.
If you now want to connect to an REX router, you can click on the "QuickCon-
nect" button to establish a connection to your system.
In the "Connect Status" fi eld, you are shown the REX "LAN IP" address on the system
side (important, for example, for the "PG/PC interface", see chapter 6, page 16).
Once a connection to the REX 100 has been established, all the IP packets that are
valid for the LAN network in the fi eld will be forwarded.
To terminate the remote access connection, click on the "Disconnect" button.
The "Status Legend" provides more information on additional "statuses".
5.2 Tips and tricks
-
If the connection to the myREX24 portal does not work on the fi rst try, please
install our "shCHECK" testing tool on a PC. This free program will check whether
the ports needed to successfully establish a connection to the myREX24 portal are
open. This test can be carried out both in the network from which a REX router
is to create a connection to the Internet and from the Internet PC on which the
shDIALUP dial-up software has been installed.
-
In order to be able to establish a connection to the myREX24 server with shDIALUP,
at least one of the TCP ports (80, 1194, or 443) required for the VPN tunnel must
be open.
-
The required outbound TPC address is 5.39.123.5
-
Alternatively, you can also view the status of your machines with a direct invoca-
tion from your browser:
https://vpn2.myrex24.net
.
Please use your shDIALUP access data to register. Following successful registration,
device confi gurations can be adapted as needed and made available on the CTM.
WEB2go sessions can also be opened if available.
-
In the event that the provider interrupts the connection of your REX 100 router dur-
ing GSM remote maintenance, this may have taken place for the following reasons,
among others: incorrect user name/password, ports blocked by the provider or no
more credit for prepaid SIM cards.
