Networking
Your Computle workstations sit in a private network inside Computle. Nothing on the internet reaches them directly. This section is for the IT administrator who manages the organisation’s firewall and the Computle Portal. It covers the ways your own network reaches that private network, and the two monitoring pages that show how your traffic and your users’ connections perform.
Every page here lives under Network or Monitoring in the Computle Portal sidebar. A page appears for tenant administrators once Computle has switched it on for your account.
Which connection to use
Section titled “Which connection to use”| You need | Use | Page |

| Your whole office network: file servers, printers, domain controllers and office PCs reaching workstations, and workstations reaching them | A site-to-site VPN between your office firewall and your Computle gateway | Site-to-site VPN |
Monitoring
Section titled “Monitoring”| Page | Shows |
|---|---|
| Network Usage | Traffic through your gateways, top destinations, link capacity, and round-trip time from each Computle site to the addresses you choose to monitor. |
