Test: Connect the Console to the Cloud Server
Having configured OpenVPN, you can test it by connecting the on-premises console to the cloud server. Run the DeviceLock Management Console on the on-premises computer and connect to the DeviceLock Enterprise Server running in the cloud:
1. Start the DeviceLock Management Console on the on-premises computer.
2. In the console tree, right-click DeviceLock Enterprise Server and choose the Connect command.
3. In the dialog box that appears, click Another computer.
4. In the Another computer box, enter the IP address of the OpenVPN server on the cloud computer followed by the DeviceLock Enterprise Server’s port number enclosed in brackets. Example: 10.8.0.1[9133]
5. Click OK and wait while the console establishes the connection.
6. Should the console prompt for a user name and password, enter the name and password of a user account with sufficient rights to access the DeviceLock Enterprise Server on the cloud computer.
With this VPN-connection, the console communicates with the cloud server by submitting RPC requests to the on-premises OpenVPN client. The client forwards requests to the cloud-based OpenVPN server that, in its turn, forwards them to the DeviceLock Enterprise Server.
