Stand-Alone External Network

After successfully running the on-premise deployment process, configure the external access policy, which includes two configuration modes: direct connection mode and proxy mode. [Understand the difference between direct connection mode and proxy mode](https://www.pingxingyun.com/contribute/detail?topicId=10105&categoryId=3)

## Direct Connection Mode

Since the standalone master node and rendering node are deployed on the same machine, the system defaults to the **direct connection mode**. If the server has an external IP, external access can be achieved through port opening or router port mapping. It is recommended to use the proxy mode when configuring HTTPS access; otherwise, the rendering node needs to configure an SSL certificate to use the WSS protocol.

**Configuration Steps:**

1. Double-click on LarkXRLauncher.exe to run it and click on configure rendering node.

- Set "Local IP" to the internal IPv4 address.

- Set "Public IP" to the external IP.

- Set "Preferred Public IP" to the external IP (e.g., 112.6.266.122).

**Network Port Opening/Mapping Strategy**

|Type | Port Number | Purpose | Replacement|
|-------- | -------- | -------- | --------|
|TCP | 8181 | * * Required * *, frontend page nginx forwarding and backend interface | [Modify 8181 port](https://www.pingxingyun.com/question/detail?topicId=10078&categoryId=2 Please refer to)|
|TCP | 8182 | * * Not required * *, backend page nginx forwarding | [modify port 8182]( https://www.pingxingyun.com/question/detail?topicId=10114&categoryId=2 Please refer to)|
|TCP | 10002 | * * Required * *, Websocket communication port | [Modify 10002 port]( https://www.pingxingyun.com/question/detail?topicId=10119&categoryId=2 "Modify port 10002")|
|UDP | 10011-10040 | * * Required * *, audio and video port, where one port represents one concurrency | [Modify audio and video port](https://www.pingxingyun.com/question/detail?topicId=10122&categoryId=2 "Modify audio and video ports")|

## Proxy Mode

In the standalone version, you can choose to use the proxy mode without the need to open an additional 10002 port.

**Configuration Steps:**

1. Double-click on LarkXRLauncher.exe to run it and click on configure management node.

- Enable the rendering server connection proxy.

2. Click on configure rendering node.

- Set "Local IP" to the internal IPv4 address.

- Set "Preferred Public IP" to the external IP (e.g., 112.6.266.121).
