The Junxion Box is a flexible platform which can be accessed and controlled remotely in several different ways.

  • If your carrier does not firewall the Junxion Box, you may be able to directly access the Device Manager through the external WAN IP address of the Junxion Box. Open a browser and enter the IP address followed by /admin to access the Device Manager. For example, 172.16.1.1/admin. If you do not have a static IP address from your carrier, you can use a Dynamic DNS service to track the IP address of your Junxion Box. Refer to the User Guide for more information.

  • If you have multiple Junxion Boxes deployed, you can use Field Commander™ to monitor, configure, and update all of your Junxion Boxes from one page. To learn more about Field Commander, or to create your own secure Field Commander project, visit www.junxion.com/fieldcommander.

If you need to access a device or computer that is behind the Junxion Box (connected to the Junxion Box LAN), you have several options.

  • Use the IP Passthrough feature to give the WAN IP address to a single LAN client attached to port 2 of the Junxion Box. This is best used if you have a VPN or similar device that does not need a local IP address from the Junxion Box (192.168.2.x for example).

  • You can setup a DMZ which will forward all inbound traffic to a single IP address on the network. Make sure that the computer connected to the the Junxion Box LAN has a static LAN IP address. This is best used if you only have one computer that is receiving traffic from the Internet.

  • You can use port forwarding to forward inbound traffic to other ports and IP addresses on your internal network. Make sure that each computer you are forwarding traffic to on the internal network has a static LAN IP address. This is best used if you have several computers, each providing a unique service on different port numbers.

For more information, refer to the User Guide or contact Junxion support. It is also helpful to check with your carrier in advance to see what types of restrictions, if any, they have on inbound traffic with your cellular data service plan.
