VNC public resources render a full VNC client in the browser. Users visit a FQDN, complete Pangolin authentication, and get an interactive remote display session without installing a VNC viewer.
|
|
|
|
## How It Works
|
|
|
|
1. You assign a FQDN on a domain managed in Pangolin.
|
|
2. The user completes [authentication and access rules](/manage/resources/public/authentication) in the browser.
|
|
3. Pangolin renders the VNC session and proxies traffic to the VNC server through a site connector.
|
|
|
|
No Pangolin client is required.
|
|
|
|
## Site and Host Configuration
|
|
|
|
VNC public resources do **not** use [targets](/manage/resources/public/targets). Instead, you:
|
|
|
|
1. Select which sites can route to the resource.
|
|
2. Enter the backend VNC server host and port (commonly `5900` or `5900 + display number`).
|
|
|
|
Pangolin routes through the site that is online and healthiest, using the same intelligent multi-site routing model as [private resources](/manage/resources/private/multi-site-routing).
|
|
|
|
## Authentication and Access Rules
|
|
|
|
VNC public resources are protocol-aware and support the full set of Pangolin [authentication and access rules](/manage/resources/public/authentication), including platform SSO, identity providers, user/role assignments, and context-based allow/deny rules. You can share these settings across resources with a [resource policy](/manage/resources/public/resource-policies).
|
|
|
|
VNC session credentials (if configured on the VNC server) are entered in the browser-rendered client after Pangolin authentication succeeds. |
