Hi,

you can open a SSH tunnel to the device to access the interface from
remote, securely:

Install openssh-server on the tablet.

On the Linux box, do:
ssh -l user <device-ip-address> -L 2947:127.0.0.1:2947

Then connect to localhost:2947 on your Linux box and the tunnel leads
to the device.


Regards,
Martin
