Niagara Remote™ provides web-based remote access to a Niagara station from an Internet-connected device. No additional hardware, gateways or VPNs needed!

The need for remote connection to a Niagara-based network of devices arises often in the daily life of the Niagara Framework^® user. Niagara Remote is a service from the Niagara Cloud Suite that helps increase productivity for the user troubleshooting a deployment, doing regular engineering and maintenance work, or just checking the status of all operations across a Niagara-based network via the graphical user interface. Niagara Remote enables faster issue identification, resolution and more responsive service.

Niagara Cloud Suite enhances the Niagara Framework by extending your offerings to the cloud. With Niagara Remote, you can access a Niagara Supervisor or JACE via a web browser, without the need for additional hardware, gateways or VPNs. 

FEATURES

Tridium understands that security is often a key customer concern when deploying a cloud solution. Thus, Niagara Remote™ is designed to work with standard IT-network firewall technology and incorporates robust security features, for example:

• All user and station communications use HTTPS / websockets on port 443.
• Niagara station initiates outbound, remote access connection to the cloud. Inbound connections are not required.
• A single endpoint application program interface — api.niagara-cloud.com — is used for all communication with the station.
• Multi-Factor Authentication required for remote access to station.
• Fine-grained, role-based access controls allow user access to be managed at the station level.
• TLS1.2+ (TLS1.3 recommended) for all communications.
