Guides
Short, task-focused walkthroughs. Start with your first tunnel, then dig into roles, access control and specific protocols. Each guide is something you can do end to end in one sitting.
01
Your first tunnel in 5 minutes
→
Create an account, connect an agent and open a working tunnel to a service running on it.
02
Client, support or dual: choosing the agent role
→
What each role does, which one a machine needs, and how to switch a running agent between them.
03
SSH into a machine behind NAT
→
Reach SSH on a machine with no public IP and no port forwarding, from your laptop behind its own NAT.
04
Permissions and access control for a team
→
Turn your account into an organization, invite teammates and grant per-endpoint access so everyone reaches only what they should.
05
Access a remote USB device
→
Tunnel a USB-over-IP service so a remote licence dongle or hardware key appears as if plugged into your machine.
06
Connect to a remote database behind NAT
→
Reach a PostgreSQL, MySQL or Redis database with no public IP and query it with your normal tools.
07
Remote desktop (RDP / VNC) through a tunnel
→
See and control a Windows or Linux desktop behind NAT from your own computer, port 3389 never exposed.
08
Reach a device’s web panel behind NAT
→
Open the web admin of a router, NAS, camera or industrial device on a remote network from your browser.
09
Install the agent on Linux, Windows or macOS
→
The one-line Linux installer, the Windows executable, the macOS binary and the desktop GUI — register and run.
10
Traffic, coins and top-ups
→
How billing works: the coin currency, per-agent subscriptions and metered traffic, top-ups and auto top-up.
11
Monitor tunnels and traffic in real time
→
Watch agents, tunnels and per-stream traffic update live in the panel — the dashboard and stream log.
12
Rotate an agent’s credentials and revoke a device
→
Re-register to rotate credentials or move hardware, and delete an agent to revoke a lost or retired device.
13
LRO on Android: SSH terminal with built-in tunnels
→
An SSH terminal with a built-in agent — connect to servers and reach machines behind NAT from your phone.
New to LRO? The first guide takes you from zero to a working tunnel.
