IP Gateway

This is the address of the device that links the local network the Vista Remote 2 is connected to another network such as the wider Internet. Usually the actual gateway is a network switch or router and it will be used whenever a required address lies outside the current network.

VNC Port

This is the logical link through which communications with a remote VNC viewer will be channeled. The default setting is 5900 which is a widely recognized port number for use by VNC software. However, in certain circumstances it may be advantageous to alter this number.

HTTP Port

This is the logical link that communications with a remote web browser will be channeled. The default setting of 80 is an established standard for web (HTTP – HyperText Transfer Protocol) traffic though this can be changed to suit your local network requirements.

IP Access Control

This section allows you to optionally specify ranges of addresses which will or will not be granted access to the Vista Remote 2. If this option is left unchanged, then the default entry of ‘+0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0’ ensures that access from all IP addresses will be permitted. If this feature is needed, please see Appendix D for a detailed explanation of IP access control.

Host Configuration

The Host Configuration menu allows you to configure various details for each of the host systems that may be connected to the Vista Remote 2. Each of the entries can be configured with a name, the permitted users, and the hot key combinations to switch to it. Depending on the model, enter names for 4 or 8 host computers.

Figure 16. Configure Host

Click on the “Erase Host Configuration” tab to remove all host entries if needed.

Check the box “Add entry for unrecognized host” to add any system connected to that is not specified in the Host list. Verify these added hosts for the correct Hot key sequence and user permission.
