Web Access

Web Interface configuration

The web access settings allow users to configure individual access methods and define access ports. The RCCMD web interface will only respond to these queries.

Default settings:

Save / Restore Configuration

For this function, RCCMD version v4.49.12 231011 or later is required

Important: Version 4.49 introduces some changes for backup/restore

New directory at RCCMD: customfiles

RCCMD has always supported for users to launch their own scripts within the RCCMD application. With the introduction of the BACKUP / RESTORE solution, a new folder for your own scripts was introduced:

The backup not only includes the configurations used by RCCMD itself, but with version 4.49, everything you store under customfiles* will be backed up and restored when you import the backup. This enables quick and convenient restoration of configurations.

Since the “customfiles” folder is a subfolder of the RCCMD installation, the CS141 will need a relative path name to run in the “RCCMD Execute” job in the future. For the Windows script helloworld.bat, for example, this start would look like this:

/customfiles/helloworld.bat

RCCMD will then search for the specified batch file in the “customfiles” subfolder and run it with local admin rights. However, if you store the start script in the RCCMD installation directory, the old spelling remains:

helloworld.bat

If the batch file is in the RCCMD installation directory, RCCMD will then start it directly.

How to create a backup file or restore the backup

1. Click „Backup“

RCCMD will generate and provide a clearly marked zipped backup file for download.

Note: 

Limited storage space in the “customfiles” folder: 20 MB The backup function does not differ between file types, so you can store any information there - including special maintenance instructions, network plans, short documentation, etc. - So when you reinstall RCCMD, you have all the information bundled in one place. The only thing to note is that the folder must not be larger than 20 MB. If this is the case, there will be a corresponding error message when creating the backup.

2. Place the zipped file as downloaded into the specified box and save it, then click “Restore“. 

   The integrated backup program will unzip the zip file and restore all configurations, including any self-created certificates. It should be noted that RCCMD recognizes backups and if there is an incorrect backup file:

Depending on whether you try to import a backup Linux <-> VMware or Linux / VMware <-> Windows, you will get one of the two error messages.

Update Web server certificate

The integrated web server can be configured to follow company SSL/TLS certificates. For the required pem-file, refer to the local IT department. This function will be used to encrypt the communication between the web interface of the RCCMD installation and the web browser.

TLS certificate update function:

1. Create a backup file before using this function

2. Place the *.pem file in the according upload box

3. Click upload

4. Restart RCCMD at System status.

The Web browser should now show your own certificate. If your web browser can not access the web interface, re-install RCCMD and check the certificate.
