Gateways

Last update: 28.03.2025

The Gateway configuration involves pairing Fudo ShareAccess with an Fudo Enterprise instance.

Note

Pairing Fudo Enterprise with Fudo ShareAccess requires meeting specific prerequisites, which must be configured directly within Fudo Enterprise.

  • A user with the superadmin role, and an email identical to that of the Organization owner, must exist in the Fudo Enterprise configuration.
  • DNS configuration is required. Please go to Settings > Network configuration Fudo Enterprise configuration and set up the DNS server.
  • NTP configuration is required. Please go to Settings > System Fudo Enterprise configuration and set up NTP server.

For detailed information, refer to the following Fudo Enterprise sections: NTP Configuration and DNS Configuration.

Note

To enable Fudo Enterprise communication with the Fudo ShareAccess platform, make sure the following outbound connections are allowed:

  • api.shareaccess.com on port 443 – required for API communication over HTTPS.
  • connect.shareaccess.com on port 65522 – required to establish a tunnel between Fudo ShareAccess and Fudo Enterprise.
  • acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org on port 443 - required for certificate issuance and renewal.

Verify that your firewall or proxy settings do not block these endpoints.
