![](https://2680672255-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LnTr9AJw2LSkE1jBNGj-1199083947%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-978019f7a54c86f0d9b9615832d03f03f8987d12%2Fbanner.png?alt=media)

[Sinip](https://sinip.tech) enables you to remotely manage network devices that **don't have a public IP address**.

Some devices you can manage are:

* Network devices
  * Mikrotik
  * OpenWrt
* Servers
  * GNU/Linux
  * FreeBSD
  * Windows
* Other devices
  * Raspberry PI

When you [sign up on Sinip](https://my.sinip.tech), you get some *keys*, each of which can be used to connect a device to your Sinip network, and at least one of which should be used to connect an `Admin Device` like a PC or Smartphone, from where you intent to perform administrative tasks upon you `Remote Network Devices` (those without a public IP address).

Every *key* will work for both admin and remote network devices, just make sure to use a different one for every device.

{% hint style="info" %}
An `Admin Device` is a PC or Smartphone used to perform administrative tasks, a `Remote Device` is anything you manage remotely: network devices, Mikrotik, servers, Raspberry PI, etc.
