After I opened access to printer, it appeared in the list of available for connection on my MacBook. If server is in another subnetwork, for instance, when connected via VPN, it can be added with “Add server” button. When using USB Network Gate as a client, the app scans local network for servers and displays all devices available for connection. Authorization and encryption are also available to secure the connection. You can also set up connection separately for each device or port, or allow connection only to a specific address. But you can display and set up shared access to all ports. When started, it displays by default all USB devices connected to a computer. The app simultaneously performs functions of a server and a client. It is available for Windows, Linux (RPM and Deb packages), Apple OS X and what’s particularly interesting, for Android. The app can also be used in a virtual environment, if for some reasons it is not possible to connect the device directly. The app allows to set up an exclusive access to devices for a specific remote desktop user by isolating them from other users. USB Network Gate can be irreplaceable, for example while using USB tokens on RDP server. So I downloaded the app, installed it, pressed Share button and my device was available for connection on a remote PC equipped with a client. Some of them require users to have certain knowledge and skills and in some cases installation may take a lot of your time. USB Network Gate amazed me with its simplicity.
