Usage
Once remoteit has been installed on the target device and the services have been configured, then you can connect to any of the services using either the Desktop, CLI, remoteit Web Portal, mobile applications or the API. The Desktop and CLI can support both peer to peer connections and proxy connections while the Web Portal and API can only support proxy connections.
For more on connections, please refer to the documentation for Desktop, remoteit Web Portal or the API.
Checking the Target Network
The device package only comes with the connectd command and does not attempt to add this to the system PATH. All the commands are being run at the target device's network. These are initial tests to confirm the device can access remoteit's servers or other targets on the LAN.
default installation location
/usr/share/remoteit/
/usr/local/bin/
To confirm that your network is configured correctly to allow a remote.it connection, run connectd -n at the command line in order to run remote.it Network Diagnostics. You may have to configure any virus checker that you are using in order to allow connectd to be run.
connectd -n

Checking if NAT-PMP Router is found...[NOT FOUND]
This router preserves ports, this is optimal.
This router doesn't remap new connections to new ports.

Looks compatible.To do additional confirmation that remote.it has consistent connectivity and will not provide inaccurate offline events run connectd -nat. 30 seconds is disirable.
To check accessible addresses from the target device use connectd -nc <server:port>. This command tests if we can open a tcp port to specified server
