Reach LAN devices without an agent through EasyTier ​

Through EasyTier, a client away from home opens a LAN device that runs no agent at the device's own LAN address. Such a device is a printer or your router's admin page. In the mainland edition, this is the one route page.

Before you start, check these:

The Settings of the EasyTier card on the Access page show the hub's mode: EasyTier console or Manual bootstrap peers. In console mode, skip the manual mode section; in manual mode, skip the two console sections.

Find the subnet ​

In router mode, the subnet comes from the LAN interface's Gateway address and Prefix length on the Network page: 192.168.10.1 with 24 gives 192.168.10.0/24. In side gateway mode, it comes from the hub's own address on that LAN: 192.168.1.20/24 gives 192.168.1.0/24.

Add a subnet proxy in the console ​

  1. In the EasyTier console's sidebar, under 网络 (networks), select the hub's network.
  2. Select the 子网路由 (subnet routes) tab.
  3. Select 新增路由 (add route).
  4. Type the subnet in 目标网段 (destination subnet).
  5. Under 通过哪些节点访问 (through which nodes), pick the hub's device.
  6. Select 创建路由 (create route).

Read it in the panel ​

  1. In the panel, open the Access page.
  2. Select the EasyTier card.

Under Networks from the console, the network's Subnet routes lists the subnet you added.

In manual mode ​

  1. On the Access page, select the EasyTier card.
  2. Under Exported networks, turn on the subnet.
  3. Select Apply EasyTier settings. EasyTier restarts, and connections over it drop for a moment.

Check from a client ​

Each client on the network gets the route from EasyTier. In the desktop client or the Android app, away from home:

  1. On the Hubs page, find the virtual network line under the hub's row.
  2. If the line reads Not connected, select Connect. The line reads Connected · followed by the client's EasyTier address.
  3. In a browser, open the device's LAN address, such as http://192.168.10.20.

When the device stays unreachable ​

In console mode, a client line that stays at Connecting… belongs to a device the console has not attached yet. Attach it to the hub's network as Put the hub on an EasyTier network describes. A red line on the Access page, or a code under the client's line, has its fix in Troubleshooting.
