Install the RPort Server

PreviousScreenshotsNextInstall on-premises
CtrlK

Use the fully automated installer to install the rport server in no time.

Select where you want to install your RPort server.

Usually it takes less than 5 minutes to get your RPort instance up and running. โฑ๏ธ

The more clients you manage, the more memory you need. You can roughly calculate ~430 KB per Client.

Rportd does not consume many CPU resources. The smallest CPU on any cloud provider is suitable. Rport performs very well on a Raspberry Pi (armv7 and aarch/armv8)

Rport has built-in monitoring with retention of historical data. Each host writes ~16 MB data per day to the database. You can freely configure the retention period. If you want to manage many hosts with rport and if you need a long retention period, put large disks in your VM.

The fully automated installer will install the rport server on a virgin cloud VM. โœ… Suitable for any cloud vendor. โŽ Requires a dedicated public IP address.

Install the RPort server on-premisesโ€‹
