Access Device Web Applications

Use JFrog Connect to enable port forwarding access web applications on your edge device.

You can gain access to your edge device using a number of different port forwarding methods. This page shows an example of using port forwarding to access the web applications on your web device.

Prerequisite

Ensure that you use the same port that your web page is hosted through. If you are unsure about the port number, see the document How to Change Nginx Port in Linux to change your server’s port to a known one.

Open Web Application Access Session

To start remote access session, do the following:

  1. Go to Remote Access and choose the device you want to access.

  2. Enter the port through which your web application or web page is hosted. For example, if you are using Nginx server, the default port is 80.

  1. Click Open Session. Wait until Connect produces the Remote Access Address as shown below.

  1. Copy the URL, paste it in the address bar in your preferred web browser, and press Enter.

You will now be able to access the web page hosted on your edge device through your web browser just like a regular web page.
