# Add Endpoint / Webproxy - icom Connectivity Suite - VPN

Proceed as follows to create a new endpoint in the **icom Connectivity Suite - VPN**. Optionally, you can also create a webproxy for the endpoint when creating it.

1. Click on the *VPN* → *Endpoints (Webproxies)* page on + Add endpoin.
2. From the networks of all INSYS routers registered with the **icom Connectivity Suite - VPN**, select the *Device* network that you wish to add as an endpoint.
3. Select the *Protocol* for accessing the endpoint.
4. Enter the IP address under *IP in the VPN* at which the endpoint can be reached in the VPN network.
5. Enter the *Port* used to access the endpoint. The port is already pre-assigned to the default port of the selected protocol.
6. Enter an *Endpoint name* that uniquely describes the endpoint so that it can be distinguished from others.
7. If you also want to create a webproxy for this endpoint, activate the *Add webproxy* switch and click Next to define it:
  1. Optionally, change the randomly generated string in *Name in URL* to a ‘descriptive’ address. The resulting URL is displayed as a preview below the field.
  2. For *Basic Authentication*, optionally select **No Authentication** if no password is required to access the device. This is necessary, for example, if a camera requires HTTP authentication, as two-step authentication is not possible in a browser session.

> [!WARNING]
> Security risk!
> 
> After deactivating authentication, the application in question can be accessed via the Internet without protection from the **icom Connectivity Suite – VPN**. Security can only be provided by the application itself. It is therefore essential to regularly check the application for security vulnerabilities. We do not recommend this function for security-critical applications.
  3. Only change the *Advanced webproxy settings* if you want to configure them for specific use cases. We recommend using the default settings if you are not sure about the effects of any changes.
    1. If the *Enable WebSocket protocol in webproxy* checkbox is selected, a WebSocket connection (ws: or wss:) between the VPN service and the application is enabled. For example, we recommend allowing a WebSocket connection if a webproxy is used to access INSYS routers with icom OS 5.5 or higher.
    2. If the *Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)* checkbox is enabled, cross-origin resource sharing is permitted, i.e. the client may also send script requests to a server with a different domain, which is normally prohibited by the same-origin policy (SOP).
    3. If the checkbox *Endpoint uses additional independent authentication ("Form-based-Auth" only)* is selected, **form-based authentication** can be performed on the target device in addition to authentication by the webproxy.
    4. If the *Accept encoding: without compression checkbox* is selected, the transferred content will not be compressed further.
8. Click on Create to add the endpoint.

The endpoint is displayed in the list of endpoints on the [*Endpoints (Webproxies)*](/kb/docs/icom-connectivity-suite-vpn-endpoints-webproxies) page.
