Hello!

I was wondering if anyone has experimented and had good luck with
accessing real-time EPICS channel data over the Internet.  Is this, by
any chance, something that is possible with the EPICS gateway?

Since allowing access over the Internet in any way would inevitably be
a large security risk, we would like to be able to use SSH tunneling
to secure the connection and to monitor who is doing what with the
system.  Unfortunately, SSH seems unsuitable because it only supports
tunneling on TCP ports, while EPICS uses both TCP and UDP.

Has anyone done anything similar, or got any ideas/suggestions on how
to go about doing it securely?

Your help is much appreciated.

You could use a VPN. It depends on what you want to do. Or maybe you have constraints that make this not an option?
