To remotely control the computer in the intranet of the enterprise (not connected to the external network), if the control terminal and the controlled terminal are both in the intranet, you can follow the steps below:
1. Make sure both computers are connected to the same LAN
Make sure that the computer you want to control and the computer you want to initiate remote control on are connected to the same local area network (LAN) within your enterprise. Their IP addresses should be within the same network range.
2. Enable remote desktop or remote access
On the computer you want to control, make sure Remote Desktop or Remote Access is enabled. The steps to enable this feature may vary depending on your operating system. For example, on Windows, you can go to Control Panel > System > Remote Settings and enable "Allow remote connections to this computer".
3. Select remote control software
Choose a remote control software that is compatible with your operating system and network environment. On-premises solutions like Splashtop On-Prem provide secure remote access in intranet environments.
There is one point in particular that needs attention. Most remote software, including Splashtop's cloud-based remote solutions, require data traffic to go through the public network. If both computers are on the intranet of the enterprise and cannot connect to the external network, remote connections cannot be made. Locally deployed remote solutions like Splashtop On-Prem are designed for enterprise intranet environments. The data traffic goes through the enterprise intranet, so intranet remote can be realized.
4. Install and configure remote control software
Install the remote control software of choice on the computer to be controlled and the computer to initiate remote control. Follow the software's instructions to set up necessary configurations, such as login credentials or security settings.
5. Establish a remote connection
Start the remote control software on the computer that will control the remote computer. Use the interface provided to enter the appropriate connection details, such as the IP address or hostname of the target computer. Initiate a connection to establish a remote session.
6. Control remote computer
After the remote connection is established, you should be able to see the target computer's remote desktop on your local computer. You can now control remote computers, perform tasks, access files, and run applications as if you were there.
External network access to intranet computer
If you need to remotely access the intranet computer from the external network, it can also be achieved. The method is a little more complicated, and the internal and external network needs to be connected through the Gateway. The principle is as follows:
