I seem to have problems with port forwarding on my windows node. It is only about port 14002, the other port (28967) does not cause any problems and is configured as desired. Port 14002 works on the own server, via localhost:14002. In the firewall the port 14002 was released just like port 28967 w…

From where do you want to access the dashboard? That port is for the storagenode dashboard, and should not be exposed to the internet. In your router you don’t need to forward/open port 14002. So from wan, it should be seen as closed. That port is only intended to be accesed from your local netwok. …

what is the config in your config.yaml? try to listen to 0.0.0.0:14002

Sorry, I forgot how win node works. You should set in config this: console.address: pc_lan_ip:14002 The ip is the fixed ip that you choose for your PC with the storagenode on it, in your LAN, like 192.168.1.5. It’s not from where you try to access the node; it’s the node’s address.

I would not recommend to publish your dashboard to the internet without any protection, use this method instead: How to remote access the web dashboard - Storj Node Operator Docs or [Tech Preview] Multinode Dashboard Binaries

If you don’t forward the 14002 port in router, how can it be visible from the internet?

The title of this topic states: “Port forwarding 14002”, so I think the author wants to forward it and have an access via internet. But here is a problem - ANYONE can access it, not only the author.

OK, sorry… I was thinking I exposed mine too without knowing it. :sweat_smile: I also checked one from another location with http://wan-ip:14002 . Isn’t responding, so I’m ok.

but is that a problem? i mean you can only see sth about my node and cant change sth? or iam wrong?

allright i will check that out :slight_smile:
