Using noVNC in the current version of Abiquo

...

The proxy we will use is called websockify and it is included in the noVNC distribution package. This software should run on a separate machine from any other Abiquo service.When the user clicks on the eye icon, the client premium loads the VNC client (in this case noVNC) from the Abiquo Server.  As we are going to replace part of the platform, some small changes will be needed in order for all of this to work with the current release of Abiquo.

  • The Abiquo client GUI (noVNC client) requires access to the websockify proxy at its public IP address on port 41337.
  • The websockify proxy requires access to the Abiquo API on port 80.
