Dear Hien,

your problem is more general the question, how to get the elog to the network.

You have to open the port on your system to the network.
I would suggest to google "open port for webserver on windows".
As right now I would just do the same and follow a tutorial.
A remark here: elog by default runs at port 8080, if you haven't changed this, this is the port you should be opening to the network.

If the elog can be accessed in the local network and you want to open it to the whole internet,
then you need to configure your router/gateway/(company) firewall to allow forwarding of the port of the elog.
I can't give you tips here, at this is very user specific.

An other remark, i would suggest (for a productive environment) to use user authentication in the elog to restrict access.
If you do this, then you also should use https reverse proxy or have a read in the SSL section of the elog documentation.
As http only would transmit the credentials in plain text.

I hope, I could give you a route, what your next steps could be.
Best wishes,
Sebastian
