General Settings

Network Settings

Network Settings
Alias Name
In some situations it is convenient to identify computers with USB over Network installed by their unique Aliases. You can specify the Alias Name of the current computer and choose whether to show aliases of other computers instead of hostnames.
Ping Options
Server and Client sides are sending ping packets to each other. If nothing received for a specified time, the connection will be considered as broken. Ping packet interval and timeout settings can be specified on this tab. By default, these options are set on the Server and applied for all connected Clients. But it can be overridden on each Client individually if Override ping options checkbox is marked.

Use these options carefully and in accordance with corresponding settings on Clients! Break connection interval should be several times greater than Ping packet interval to avoid misoperation.

Callback Settings

Callback Settings
Callback mode
By default USB over Network doesn't accept callback connections. You can configure it to accept callback connections automatically or with confirmation.
Also, automatic connection of all shared USB devices from callback connections can be configured.
TCP port for callback connections
You can configure any TCP port for callback connections. USB Server must initiate callback connection exactly at this port. So use this option carefully.
Enable UPnP port mapping
If you have a UPnP-compatible network router, you can enable this option for simplified local network access as well as remote access via the Internet.

The program can be configured to accept callback connections only from the people who knows the secret password.
