Using Grafana from my Home

Hello people! I have a question! The fact is that I have installed Grafana in my Raspberry Pi, it works fine and actually I can see my data bases from MySQL over there! Im having a trouble with the server. The server its in my office (where I go to work) and I want to get access to that web server from my home.

The question is, how can I get access to grafana raspberry Pi dashboard from my home?

Thanks!

My discord if you want to reply me there gabob1457 #8186

One way is to use a VPN to give you access to your office network. If your office does not provide a VPN then you can run one on the pi. If you work for a Company, however, they may have a view about that. However it is fairly easy to run a VPN on a Pi

Hello clanlaw! Can I do that via Wifi? I mean, the raspberry pi is working with the wifi, not with ethernet.

It makes no difference.

Ok clanlaw! Thanks for the advice! Also, I have a little trouble installing the vpn on this step “sudo ./easyrsa sign-req server server” it tells me this “Unknown cert type ‘server’”

Which version of raspian are you running?
What does the command
lsb_release -a
show?

No LSB modules are available.
ID: Raspbian
Description: Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Release: 10
Codename: buster
Something like this

That’s very odd then, I don’t have that problem on mine. Did you accept the default setting on the line above?

The default settings you meant to press enter right? Without typing anything? O.o

Yep, it stills telling me this "cert type “server”, do you have a discord account clanlaw¡?

Yes. Go back to the pki-init and repeat those steps, just in case there was a mis-type. Unfortunately I am away from home at the moment and my Buster pi is not powered up so I can’t re-check. I haven’t had anyone else report a problem, but I only updated the blog for Buster a couple of weeks ago so it is not impossible there is an error there. As I said I am away so won’t be able to check for a week or so. You could do some googling and see if you can work out what the problem is.

@gabob1457 I cannot replicate the issue so far. Is it still not working for you?

@gabob1457 does the lack of reply mean that you have solved the problem, lost interest, or possibly you have not seen it? If there is a problem with the instructions I want to fix it.

Hello! clanlaw! I couldnt create that vpn to the raspberry and also I didnt have to use it xD but thank you very much! I have another question, is grafana a web server?
