<p>PageKite is a system for exposing {{ cfg.box_name }} services when
|
|
you don't have a direct connection to the Internet. You only need this
|
|
service if your {{ cfg.box_name }} services are unreachable from the
|
|
rest of the Internet. This includes the following situations: </p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>{{ cfg.box_name }} is behind a restricted firewall.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>{{ cfg.box_name }} is connected to a (wireless) router which you
|
|
don't control.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Your ISP does not provide you an external IP address and instead
|
|
provides Internet connection through NAT.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Your ISP does not provide you a static IP address and your IP
|
|
address changes evertime you connect to Internet.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Your ISP limits incoming connections.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>PageKite works around NAT, firewalls and IP-address limitations by
|
|
using a combination of tunnels and reverse proxies. Currently,
|
|
exposing web server and SSH server are supported. An intermediary
|
|
server with direct Internet access is required. Currently, only
|
|
pagekite.net server is supported and you will need an account
|
|
there. In future, it might be possible to use your buddy's
|
|
{{ cfg.box_name }} for this.</p>
