Hey,  
I have made an dashboard to my weidmuller UC20-WL2000-AC, and can control it locally really good.  
But would really like to open it up threw my phone.  
How would i solve this?  
With mqtt protocol?

Depends on what you have working now... I use an App called Virtuino6 with MQTT to connect with my Node-Red server.

As my NR server is internal to my network, I setup port forwarding from my WAN IP to the servers LAN IP in-order to have connectivity away from home.

Hi Robert,  
In fact it's quite easy.  
Using an iPhone having IP 172.20.10.1 (main case with Apple) sharing connection with my UC20-WL2000 (IP 172.20.10.3) thru a WLAN (IP 172.20.10.2). Best is to use Chrome in the iPhone and connecting to the URL 172.20.10.3/red/ui it gives direct access to the dashboard.  
Greetings  
Armando
