The Remote Agent Client is a lightweight application that runs on the customer jumpbox. The Remote Agent Client allows the LogicHub deployment residing outside of your firewall to send and receive data from your on-network applications.
The Remote Agent Client connects to the LogicHub deployment outside of your network using a secure and authenticated websocket connection. This connection is maintained continuously until the remote agent client is stopped. Remote Agent Client gets TCP frames from the websocket pipeline, interprets them as SOCKS commands, executes the SOCKS command (connect to the customer service, send request bytes), retrieves the results, and sends them back to the LogicHub deployment via the same websocket connection.
