PortRemoter™ for macOS

A macOS daemon that provides TCP/IP port forwarding capabilities, which allows you to take control of your connections!

What It Does

The software accepts connections on a particular TCP port, and establishes connections to a different TCP port to fulfill requests. This capability allows you to customize your network topology through a software solution.

PortRemoter allows the hosting of multiple domain names through its virtual hosting feature. This allows a single IP address to host multiple domains by forwarding requests to the correct servers. This feature supports both the HTTP and HTTPS protocols.

When two or more instances of PortRemoter communicate with each other, additional functionality is available. This includes data encryption, data compression and data validation. It also allows multiple protocols to be supported on a single server port allowing you to minimize the number of ports that need to be opened in your firewall.

Most Internet protocols are supported. PortRemoter can forward to ports on computers outside your local area network. It can also forward to ports with different local and remote values.

PortRemoter includes a built-in web based administrative interface that allows you to configure all the application settings and monitor the network connections and data transfer statistics.
