Internet Sharing

Internet Sharing allows you to share the Internet connection used by the Windows Runtime and router to a device on an automation subnetwork. This process is possible regardless of whether Runtime is connected to the UBIQUITY Manager through a VPN connection.

Note: See Domain and Runtime licenses to check whether your license allows this feature.
Note: The Internet Sharing connection mode is not supported on Ubuntu 22 devices.

To provide remote devices connected through an automation subnetwork with Internet connectivity, proceed as follows:

Windows Runtime

  1. Start Windows Runtime.
  2. Click on the Sharing (gear) icon and select the network to which you wish to provide Internet access in the Select networks to provide Intenet access pane.
  3. Select Any or Use Allow List to share Internet with all the devices connected with Runtime or to enter the MAC addresses of the devices with which you would like Runtime to share Internet connectivity.
    Note: The Ethernet entry shows up within this section if any Ethernet ports are enabled on the remote device.

Routers

Note: To learn how to configure a router to enable the Internet Sharing mode, see the user manual supplied with the router.
