Once you've registered your edge gateway to the IXON Cloud and connected your Cognex to one of the LAN ports, you're ready to remotely access it.

If you've already followed the steps in this article and are unable to connect, see instead Can't connect to your machine - Issues and solutions.

1. LAN Source NAT needs to be disabled. It's on by default in the edge gateway's settings, but needs to be disabled for you to fully connect to your Cognex.
   • Check your Cognex's network settings first and make sure that the edge gateway's LAN IP address is entered as the Cognex's default gateway.
   • Once that is done, turn off LAN Source NAT in the edge gateway settings at Fleet Manager > Devices > Click on your device name > Network > LAN.
2. Set up a VPN connection to your edge gateway.

You can now use In-Sight Vision Suite to connect to your Cognex.

3. Connect to your Cognex as you normally do.
