Accessing the User Interface from an Internal Network#

Overview#

Key Points

  • Access the vergeOS UI from a VM within your environment
  • Create a route rule on the internal network
  • Simple process involving dashboard navigation and rule creation

This article guides you through the process of setting up access to the vergeOS User Interface (UI) from a virtual machine (VM) within your vergeOS environment. This is accomplished by creating a specific route rule on the network to which your VM is connected, typically an internal network.

Prerequisites#

  • A running vergeOS environment
  • A virtual machine (VM) within your vergeOS environment
  • Access to the vergeOS dashboard
  • Basic understanding of network rules in vergeOS

Steps#

  1. Navigate to the Network Dashboard - Log into your vergeOS environment - Go to the dashboard of the network that your target VM is connected to

  2. Create a New Rule - Locate the option to create a new rule - Use the settings shown in the image below:

  1. Submit the Rule - After configuring the rule, submit it - You will be redirected to the list view of rules on the network

  2. Apply the New Rule - Click "Apply Rules" to activate the newly created rule

  3. Access the UI from the VM - Open a web browser within your VM - Navigate to the IP address of the Verge UI (e.g., https://192.168.4.1)

Pro Tip

Always ensure that your VM's network settings are correctly configured to use the internal network where you've set up this rule.

Troubleshooting#

Common Issues

  • Problem: Unable to access the UI after creating the rule
  • Solution:
    1. Verify that the rule is applied correctly
    2. Check if the VM's network interface is on the correct network
    3. Ensure no firewall rules are blocking the connection
