HC2 as remote gateway in other network segment

[cashe 8]

Hi!

 

I have two HC2 located far away from each other. Both have static external IPs and external ports 8080 (forwarded on router from 80 to 8080).

I can connect to any of them from any place knowing their IP:PORT.

I tried to connect one of them as slave to master HC2, but with no success. I have used IP:PORT format in Add remote gateway tab to connect slave HC2, but got "Connection error. Check Home Center network connection and try again." error.

What I am doing wrong?

maybe they can work as master and slave only on LAN. try to create vpn tunnel between them that they think they are in the same network

I can't create a VPN tunnel there.

Maybe HC2 uses some special port for connection between gateways, so if I forward it, it will be possible to establish connection, I hope.

the connection between HC is work only on port 80, the syntax IP:PORT don't work, the port is fix

If you use open source router on master site is possible to do on it:

REMOTE_IP=1.1.1.1 #IP of slave HC

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d $REMOTE_IP -i br0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination :8080

this reroute questions from master HC2 from port 80 to send via internet via 8080. But be careful, the transmission isn't scrambled.
