Cloud and remote agent - page 2

Dear Alexvd,

I have to admit even if I am not exactlly a newbie, I am not very confortable with Firewall settings.

I am running eigth agents on a W2003 VPS, As I already mentionned they are all avaliable form the Cloud, but when I try to add them in the Remote Agent List (using same IP address and Ports as the one installed on the VPS), I can not connect. Do I need to install 8 diferents agents than the one used by the Cloud?

Thank you very much for your help and avaliability, I have the feeling I am progressing... 



  

 

 

Any help on how to access agent (also used in the cloud) running on a VPS. Do I need to install Separate agents (with different ports number) to be used under Remote Agent?

No. The agents are installed once. To connect them to the MQL5 Cloud Network you need to enable the corresponding option in the MetaTester. To connect them as remote agents to your strategy tester, use their IP-address, port and password.

Dear Alexvd,

Try to disable firewall (temporarily) on remote PC and run optimization in strategy tester. If remote agents are working you should add rule to allow connection on ports 2000-2007 from your PC. Also check firewall settings on your PC.

If your remote PC has a real IP address actions above should help you. If not, you might need to contact to your VPS provider.

 

P.S. How did you add remote agents into strategy tester agents list?

So they are coorectly installed as used in the cloud (remeber I am getting paid almost every days...)

None of those method, I import a file I exported from the Agent Manager on the VPS. And indeed when I try to scan the IP address no agent are populating the list... I guess I need to investigate on firewall, both on local PC and VPS...
