DX USER IP

The Remote Console window is a Java Applet that tries to establish its own TCP connection to DX User IP. The protocol that is run over this connection is not HTTP or HTTPS but a protocol called RFB (Remote Frame Buffer Protocol). Currently RFB tries to establish a connection to port number 443. Your local network environment must allow this connection to be made, i.e. your firewall and, in case you have a private internal network, your NAT (Network Address Translation) settings must be configured accordingly.

In case DX User IP is connected to your local network environment and your connection to the Internet is available using a proxy server only without NAT being configured, the Remote Console is very unlikely to be able to establish the according connection. This is because today's Web proxies are not capable of relaying the RFB protocol. In case of problems, please consult your network administrator in order to provide an appropriate network environment.

The Remote Console window shows the remote screen at its optimal size. However, you can always resize the Remote Console window in your host window system.

Hint: The Remote Console window on your local window system is just one window among others. To make the keyboard and mouse work, your Remote Console window must have the local input focus.
