Remote Connections Dialog


General Information

The connection parameters of remote connections can be configured in this dialog.

Remote Server

Enter the server name or IP and the connection port (TCP/6242 by default, example: servername:6242) and the password of the remote server. The connection requires the remote access feature to be enabled on the remote server: this feature can be enabled and configured on the SystemRemote Access on the remote server. For more information, see the Remote Access topic.

To check whether the connection parameters are correct, click the Test Connection button.

HTTP Proxy

By default, ORF tries to connect to the remote server directly. However, if you have a proxy server in between the local and remote servers, click the Change Configured Proxy Settings... button to enter the proxy parameters. For more information, see the Proxy Settings topic.

Management Tools vs. Service Proxy Settings
ORF management tools (Administration Tool, Log Viewer and Reporting Tool) installed on your local computer may require different proxy settings to access remote ORF instances, than the ORF Service that is performing the actual filtering and often needs to update its filter definitions or connect to remote publisher servers for configuration updates.

Proxy settings related to the ORF management tools can be accessed through the FileConnection Preferences menu.

Proxy settings related to the ORF service can be configured on the SystemNetwork SettingsProxy Settings page in the ORF Administration Tool.
