Agent initiated connection?
-
Is there a way for otter to function in an agent initiated connection mode? I know port 46336 has to be open on the agent for the server to send commands but this is going to cause problems for our firewall and I was wondering if there was a way around it.

In fact, we're working on this project now :)
It's going to be available in Otter 3.0, which will be released in the coming weeks. And even better, you can run Otter 3.0 on Linux/containers :)

Great! Is there a more specific timeline in mind? My team is trialing Otter at the moment but the biggest roadblock at this point is this feature being unavailable.

I don't have a detailed timeline with Otter 3.0, the scope appears to continue to creep (but, perhaps in a good way ). But it's still looking on track for early next year.
Probably the best thing to do is to get in touch with our sales engineering team, so we can learn a bit more about what problems you're trying to solve, and can give some more details about how Otter 3.0 will help; they can at least show you what's upcoming, so you can better decide if it's a good fit.
