It can be hard sometimes to find the specific technical things if you don't already know exactly what you are looking for, kinda "catch-22" I guess
Looking in Maxwell manual at page 87 they have written about ports, where to set it up in manager, node and monitor (File -> Preferences) and that you should only use the default ports.
Default ports are 45454 - 45474 btw if you look it up in manager/node/monitor

...easily communicate with using SSH terminal
how can I make the Maxwell Network manager on my desktop aware of it?...
Well the best help I can give here
http://www.google.com/search?q=samba%20ssh You need to at least have the SMB protocol enabled in your SSH setup. After that you need to enable the Maxwell ports... don't know if it will work but let me know if you're going for it.

That would avoid the VPN router altogether.
There are (free) software alternative VPN solutions instead of the costly hardware alternative, Windows has one build in and there are several out there that are easy to setup like Hamachi. This solution is easier to setup than SSH I guess, maybe because I've done it my self so many times
Hope this will help you.
