Use IBM® BigFix® Remote Control to start remote control sessions over the internet with targets that do not have the target software installed. IBM® BigFix® Remote Control version 9.1.0 components can be configured for NIST SP800-131A compliance.

The hardware that is required by the server component depends on the number of computers that are administered and the frequency that is defined for their status updates. For example, in a hotel or an airport lounge. Sometimes the target that requires support is out of network sight in an internet location. Installation with support for remote control sessions over the internet.It is more appropriate to enable traffic from, or traffic to a single computer that acts as a gateway to traverse the firewall. In some environments, it is not possible to open a port in a firewall to enable controller to target, or target to server communication for all endpoints. Installation with support for firewall and NAT traversal.Use the two components to start a peer to peer remote control session, for which the policies are defined only at target level. The most basic installation requires the IBM® BigFix® Remote Control target and controller components.
