Figure 95: Logging in to EPICenter via the secure tunnel
● Use localhost as the Server Hostname.
● Make sure the HTTP Port is 8080.
● Enter your EPICenter user name and password and click Login.
PuTTY is now set up to port forward all traffic going to the local host on port 8080. When PuTTY sees a
connection request to the local host on port 8080, PuTTY encrypts the information and sends it across
the encrypted tunnel to the server.
