Setting up a FPGA Farm DSEII with SSH Error during Exploration
Hello, we are working to design a FPGA's farm using an Intel NUC as the remote machine where we will connect the clients (on their respective machines) for the control and monitoring of the farm. We are using the DSEII of the Quartus Prime Lite II program, version 21.1. We were already able to make the connection between the machines, but we get an error when performing the Exploration. We get the following error:

As you can see, after connecting, it takes a while for the error to appear and then nothing else happens. So we wonder what could be causing this error. We use the following settings:
Hostnames: 192.168.69.72 (IP adress of the Intel Nuc)
Job per host: 1
Custom SSH port: 22

Hi,
Do you able to resolve the issue by disabling the firewall?
Best Regards,
