As per [https://kolibri.readthedocs.io/en/latest/access/access\_lan.html](https://kolibri.readthedocs.io/en/latest/access/access_lan.html) , learner device has to be connected to LAN to access the Kolibri tool on a server.

Is there any provision to connect the learner device over the internet to Kolibri tool server.

Please let us know the steps for the same

Hello, thanks for reaching out.

We currently do not distribute a release built or configured specifically for deployment over the internet.

However, Kolibri can be configured to be accessed over the internet by using a reverse proxy such as nginx to serve a running instance of Kolibri over the internet. This will require some technical knowledge to accomplish - but you may find very helpful resources online going in depth on how to setup a server with nginx.

Best of luck!
