Zerotier is a Self-Hosted Virtual Network Platform that provides end-to-end encryption for all network traffic. Allowing computers to be connected to a virtual network controlled via My Zerotier (Zerotier Hosted) or self-hosted.

With Zerotier and PTS PortGuard you can create a secure connection to your PTS server, this will allow you to access your server without OAUTH access and direct access to the servers ports (SSH, Telnet, FTP, etc.), minimizing exposure to the public Internet. This will allow you to close those ports on your Public IP firewall, thus increasing your security and enhanced connectivity.

A default ip range is set for each network you create. You can change this ip range to a predefined or choose your own range (with correct CIDR Notation)

To allow a client to connect to the ZeroTier network you must authorize the client.

A client will appear in the members section once they have connected to the network, this does not give them access. For access to be granted they must be authorized.
