A simple, secure architecture that connects your machines to a central management portal.
Install the lightweight WebXterm agent on your server, laptop, or cloud instance.
The agent establishes a secure outbound connection to the WebXterm server. No inbound ports needed.
Central server manages authentication, session routing, and audit logging.
Access your machines via browser, VS Code, or CLI with full terminal capabilities.
WebXterm uses a lightweight agent that runs on your machines. The agent initiates an outbound connection to the WebXterm server — no inbound ports or firewall changes needed.
Once connected, the machine appears in your WebXterm portal. From there, you can open terminal sessions, monitor logs, perform port forwarding, and manage your infrastructure.
The agent supports Linux, macOS, and Windows across x86 and ARM architectures. It uses minimal resources and can be managed as a system service.
All connections are encrypted with TLS. The Enterprise edition adds mutual TLS (mTLS) for certificate-based authentication, plus OIDC/SSO integration via Keycloak.
Every session is logged with a complete audit trail — who connected, when, and what commands were executed. RBAC policies let you control access at the team and machine level.
