Making an Internet connection to a computer behind a firewall
I
n most cases, a firewall or router will block inbound connections from the internet, including LapLink
connections1. Since configuration of the firewall is not easy, or even permitted by the network, LapLink
Gold offers a built-in solution: You can use LapLink Gold Corporate’s Firewall Connection Service to
make the connection.
1 For more information on the ports that LapLink uses, and for up-to-date instructions on configuring firewalls, visit www.laplink.com/
support.
When the guest computer (outside the firewall)
requests a connection, the host computer (inside the
firewall) uses the Address Book entry to initiate the
connection.
The Log-in name and password in the Log-in List
entry must match the log-in name and password in
the Address Book entry.
