You can use the --remote-jlink option with nrfutil device commands to work with J-Link probes that are accessible over the network. This allows you to flash, erase, reset, and perform other operations on devices that are connected to remote debuggers, without requiring physical access to the machine where the J-Link probe is connected.
Note
This is a method valid for devices connected to your computer over the network.
For information about programming devices locally connected to your computer through the J-Link USB port, see Programming a device with a SEGGER J-Link OB Debugger.
The connection information passed in the --remote-jlink flag is used to connect to the J-Link Remote Server instance, and the remote probe is then treated in the same way as a locally connected device.
