Enabling and Disabling Remote Access
When remote access is enabled, a user can connect to 3DM 2 over the internet or an intranet, to check status or administer the controller and associated drives. (See Viewing 3DM 2 Remotely Using a Web Browser.)
If remote access is disabled and a user attempts to connect to 3DM 2 remotely, they will see the following error message: “Remote Access to 3DM 2 has been disabled. Please connect using the local machine by entering “localhost” in the URL bar.”
Remote access can be enabled or disabled on the 3DM 2 Settings page.
 
The VMware version of 3DM is installed with remote 3DM access enabled by default, since VMware has no GUI to let you run it locally. If you disable remote access, you will need to reinstall 3DM in order to be able to connect to it.
To enable or disable remote access
1
Click 3DM 2 Settings on the menu bar.
2
In the Remote Access section of the 3DM 2 Settings page, select either Enabled or Disabled in the Allow Remote Connections field.
The page refreshes, and a message at the top of the screen confirms that remote access has been enabled or disabled.
