4.12.1 Access VisualGroups and VisualContacts on a separate server via RemoteConnector
You have Swyx VisualGroups or Swyx VisualContacts not installed on the SwyxServer and would like to access the services via RemoteConnector.
*For SwyxWare versions prior to 13.30 the configuration is done via registry key. This is described here: service.swyx.net/hc/en/articles/360017729619.
*For SwyxWare versions 13.30 and higher, the configuration is done via a configuration file. This is described below for Swyx Control Center.
How to add a RemoteConnector access via configuration file via Swyx Control Center
1 In the menu, select General Settings | Files.
2 Select the System standardtab.
3 Search for the CPE_ippbx_cpe.rcconfig file under the RemoteConnectorConfigFilecategory.
* 
If necessary, display more elements per page and search for the entry with ctrl+f.
 
4 Download the file, see 4 To manage the files .
5 Open the file (with Notepad++) and navigate to the VisualContacts or VisualGroups area.
6 Enter the desired destination address in the desired area in the DestinationSocket(...) line for 0.0.0.0.
Example:
You want to access VisualGroups via RemoteConnector using your server with the address 255.12.345.6.
<!-- VisualGroups -->
<TCPConfig>
<ClientOS>Windows</ClientOS>
<ClientListenSocket>0.0.0.0:9980</ClientListenSocket>
<DestinationSocket>255.12.345.6:80</DestinationSocket>
</TCPConfig>
7 Save the file.
8 Upload the edited file to the Swyx Control Center using the Upload file button, see To add a file.
9 Confirm with Save.
*The new configuration file is uploaded and used. You can find them under the Globaltab.
* 
The previous system default file cannot be removed. The newly uploaded file is used because the Global area has a higher priority than System Default.
