This is a pre‐shared key that is used between the Remote Control Serverand Remote Control client. When a wide area connection request is made, the keyis sent to the client. Using this pre‐shared key, the client can determine the correctIP address with which to connect.• WAN Address. This address is dependent on the type of connection your clientsuse to connect to the server through a wide area connection.• If your clients connect through a VPN connection, this is the internal address ofthe server which is visible to VPN connections.• If your clients connect through port forwarding, this is the externally visible IPaddress.
