RMS Quick Connect

Summary

Quick connect lets you quickly set up an OpenVPN network. It is a hybrid between Remote Access and RMS VPN hubs. The main advantages compared to Remote Access - you can add more third-party devices by using .ovpn files, and compared to RMS VPN hubs - it can be set up much faster.

Overview

In this screen, you can:

1. Create a new Quick Connect configuration.
2. Search and filter through existing configurations by Name/Description/Tags/Companies/Status.
3. Start chosen Quick Connect network, and download its OpenVPN configuration.
4. Change how the list is displayed.

Creating an endpoint

Connecting using auto mode

By clicking on Add new endpoint a menu will pop up. There you'll have to:

1. Type in the name.
2. Add a device through which the endpoint will be reached.
   1. Here you'll have two options, similar to Remote Access, where you can choose Auto mode, and RMS will scan the device's network for potential endpoints, or Manual mode, where you'll configure it yourself.
3. Select Quick Connect's VPN server location.

• Optional:
  • Description - type in more information you'd like to see when looking at this configuration.
