I've been able to successfully use YABE when connected to a BACnet/IP device in the local network. However, I would also be interested in using it outside the local network. Is that possible? if yes, what condiguration do I need to use?
I also take the chance to show my appreciation for the amazing tool you've made available to the BACnet users community.
cheers

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
On the menu IP Services you can register Yabe as a foreign devices if a BBMD is active on the remote network, and well configured. Also on this menu you can also try to send a WhoIs directly by adding a remote bacnet device (you need to know the IP adress, the Udp Port and the device Id with the syntax 45-192.168.12.3:47808 for instance, device Id can by unknow and replaced by ? ?-192.168.12.3:47808 ). Once again configuration should be OK, in particular firewalls settings.
Bye.

Maybe to add to Monsieur Chaxel's answer; depending upon your location/situation, it might rely upon bog-standard network (/trunk) routing being fully configured if you are going across/into several VLANs/subnets (- as opposed to using a BBMD), and I don't believe you can target routed/gatewayed (/child) devices, i.e. ones that have a DNET/network segement # & currently DADR/virtual MAC address pairing assigned via YABE - but I could be wrong (?).
