Run the ROS in a VM. It works ok but there are some bugs. You might have to spend money on a software key.

It could be run as an agent for remote networks or as a standalone server on ROS. They've removed the ability to use Windows server for the backend (which on the older builds provided much better performance). That was part of the draw to Dude - you didn't have to have a windows installation to throw it on to do its thing - you could install it on an already on-premise RB.

You would then add it to the Windows server as an agent. When you assign services to a device you can optionally select an agent. The default agent is the dude server, but you could select the router with the dude package installed as an agent. That way you could set up probes on the LAN side of a NAT router. I've used it several times. When I first installed that "Dude" package, I assumed I'd be able to connect the dude client to it, but it didn't work that way.

It just installed as another package similar to SNTP or CALEA, etc. I can't recall exactly how it presented itself in Winbox, but you would install it and connect using the regular Windows client.
