18 M2Me_Connect service
This function is available in RAS-3G-1400, RAS-3G-1201, RAS-3G-1220, RAS-3G-1230 routers only.
18.1 Overview
The M2Me_Connect service simplifies the connection of a remote PC to a machine through the
Internet.
It provides a solution when a direct PPTP or TLS connection described before shows itself impossible
in particular when the IP address assigned by the provider to the RAS-3G antenna (WAN interface) is
not a public IP address.
The M2Me_Connect service solves that difficulty :
The PC does not connect directly to the RAS-3G; both the PC and the router connect to the
“M2Me_Connect” service.
Once both parties have been authenticated by the M2Me_Connect service with their own certificate, a
TLS VPN is set from end to end from the PC to the RAS-3G router.
The remote user identity is checked by the router to verify he or she belongs to the user list stored in
the RAS-3G router.
Finally, individual access rights are assigned to the remote user depending on his or her identity.
