Local Access
TUXEDOW’s remote access option offers built-in web hosting capability to access your system via any web enabled device.
TUXEDOW can connect to a network router via Wi-Fi. The Account menu accesses the username and password used to for
the connection. This can be a local connection or remote connection using port forwarding. Features of this page are as
follows:
• 5 total users
• Enabling or disabling authentication for web server local access
• Secure web server access (HTTPS)
Web Server IP Address Access
The System Info screen reveals the connected IP address. Any device with a browser connected to the same network as the
TUXEDOW can access the webserver. This does not require authentication (Username and Password). If this authentication
is desired, check the Authentication for Web Server Local Access check box (on the Account Screen, see Account Setup
for more information), which can control who has access to connect by requiring a username and password. Unchecking the
box leaves the Web Server open for anyone to connect.
