Enable remote access to LAN Devices via LarePass VPN

LarePass VPN allows you to access your Olares device and its local network devices from a different network segment or a remote location. By enabling SSH access and subnet routing, you can remotely manage devices like PCs, printers, or NAS systems in your Olares LAN.

INFO

Only Olares admin can enable remote access to LAN Devices via LarePass VPN.

Enable LarePass VPN

TIP

Download the LarePass desktop client from the official page.

1. Open the LarePass desktop client, click on the avatar area in the top left corner of the main interface.

2. Turn on the switch for VPN connection in the pop-up panel.

   

Devices with activated VPN will use the VPN connection to access Olares, whether through the LarePass client or a browser.

INFO

iOS or macOS versions of LarePass will require adding a VPN configuration file to the system when turning on the VPN. Follow the prompts to complete the setup.

Allow SSH connections via VPN

This enables SSH access to your Olares device through the LarePass VPN, even when you are in a different network or working remotely.

1. Open the Settings app, and select System > VPN.

2. Toggle on Allow SSH Access via VPN. Port 22 (SSH) is automatically added to the configuration.

   

Allow subnet routing

This feature allows you to access other devices in the same local network as your Olares through the VPN.

1. Open the Settings app, and select System > VPN.
2. Toggle on Enable subnet routes.

Configure ACL rules for port access

After enabling subnet routing, you can further configure ACL (Access Control List) rules to allow traffic to specific ports based on the services you want to access.

For example, to access a Windows server via Remote Desktop:

1. Click add to open the Add ACL dialog.

2. Enter 3389 (default port for Remote Desktop Protocol), and click Confirm.

3. Click Apply to apply changes.

   

Now you can use Windows Remote Desktop to access the Windows server in the same LAN as Olares.
