Remote support is a service that allows Cyanview to connect remotely to your equipment for support. It is mainly used to help diagnose configuration issues, inspect logs, check connectivity, and assist with advanced setup.

The device must have internet access. The RCP opens an outgoing connection to the Cyanview support server on port 56336. No incoming port forwarding is required on the customer network.

When everything is working, it shows "Remote support Available". If the status is "Not Available", check that the RCP has a valid internet connection, gateway, and DNS configuration. See the IP Primer for more details about these network settings.
