In a typical configuration, the user’s server is located outside of the firewall and the
SwitchView IP remote access device or DSR switch resides inside the firewall. In this case, the firewall must be configured to allow four
TCP/IP ports inside the firewall.

Configure your firewall to forward ports 80,
443, 8192 and 2068 from its external interface to the KVM switch through the firewall’s internal interface. Consult the manual for your firewall for specific port forwarding instructions.
