# Access Device Web Applications

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

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

## Prerequisite

* At least one online device.
* 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](https://www.tecmint.com/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 Tools**/**Port Tunnel** in the left menu and choose the device you want to access. Only online devices are shown in the dropdown list.
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.

3. Click **Open Tunnel**. Wait until Connect produces the remote access address as shown below.

## Access the Web Page

Copy the URL, paste it in the address bar in your preferred web browser, and type **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.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.connect.jfrog.io/features-new-ui/tools/remote-tools-overview/remote-access/access-device-web-applications.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
