Hello!

I’m trying to reach a robot over VPN.

By opening port 5512, 5513, 5514 and 5515 it’s possible to connect to the robot, but I’m unable to browse the RAPID or even take backups..

The ports 20 and 21 is also open.

I got this error in RobotStudio today:

The remote server returned an error: 227 Entering Passive Mode (10,47,46,213,4,28)

Best Regards,
Kilde

Nobody knows? Not even where to look?

Hi,

Network connection

To enable a connection to a controller on a subnet or over the local network, the relevant network traffic must be allowed through any firewalls between the PC and the controller.

The firewalls must be configured to accept the following TCP/IP traffic from the PC to the controller:

  • UDP port 5514 (unicast)

  • TCP port 5515

  • Passive FTP

    All TCP and UPD connections to remote controllers are initiated by the PC, that is the controller only responds on the given source port and address.

    Firewall settings

    The firewall settings are applicable irrespective of whether you are connected to a real controller or a virtual controller.
