Key Features
Connect remote networks with sites and NAT traversal
Pangolin's site connectors provide gateways into networks so you can access any networked resources. Sites use outbound tunnels and intelligent NAT traversal to make networks behind restrictive firewalls available for authorized access without public IPs or open ports. Easily deploy a site as a binary or container on any platform.
Browser-based reverse proxy access
Expose web applications through identity and context-aware tunneled reverse proxies. Users access applications through any web browser with authentication and granular access control without installing a client. Pangolin handles routing, load balancing, health checking, and automatic SSL certificates without exposing your network directly to the internet.
Client-based private resource access
Access private resources like SSH servers, databases, RDP, and entire network ranges through Pangolin clients. Intelligent NAT traversal enables connections even through restrictive firewalls, while DNS aliases provide friendly names and fast connections to resources across all your sites. Add redundancy by routing traffic through multiple connectors in your network.
Give users and roles access to resources
Use Pangolin's built in users or bring your own identity provider and set up role based access control (RBAC). Grant users access to specific resources, not entire networks. Unlike traditional VPNs that expose full network access, Pangolin's zero-trust model ensures users can only reach the applications, services, and routes you explicitly define.
