Guillermo Belli proposed the following answer:
Hello again,

To access your server from a remote location you can do it via SSH, or
if you prefer a graphical interface, you can try RDP or VNC. You can
also use VCN through SSH, or forward X application via SSH. One last
option would be a server management software with a web interface, like
Webmin.

In any case, you must forward the appropriate ports from the router to
the server, be it for remote management or for the services you intend
to run (ie. HTTP, FTP, etc.)

These could be helpful:
