RC-REMOTEACCESS
RC-RemoteAccess enables Administrators to remotely and securely connect multiple
independent buildings into one homogenized system leveraging the BACnet protocol,
creating one or more Virtual Private BACnet Networks (VPBN). RC-RemoteAccess (RC-
RA) software eliminates the traditional and onerous workload of establishing static IP
tables and public IP addresses and port forwarding rules within the router and firewall
devices in each building: a challenge often met with resistance due to security issues. RC-
RA dynamically configures and optimizes BACnet/IP routing tables, quickly and securely.
Click RC-RemoteAccess to open the RC-RemoteAccess Configuration dialog box.

Field Description
System Name The System Name, as defined in RC-Studio.

Address
The RC-RA server IP address or fully qualified domain name.
Connection Port The TCP port that the RC-RA server listens to for incoming client
connections (defaults to 8443).

Utility. This should be a different password than the one used in
RC-Studio, and it is case sensitive.
Manage
Certificates
(Optional - for advanced users) Used to setup a root certificate, a
client certificate, and a private key. This is typically unnecessary
because RC-RA has built-in certificates.

This checkbox must be checked to enable full secure routing
services via the Virtual Private BACnet Network created by
RC-RemoteAccess.
