Buffalo Technology WZR-RS-G54 user manual Network Service List

Network Service List

For easier access to the Network Service List, the Dynamic DNS hostname can be used for access to the AirStation. However, for this to occur the ‘Remote Management Port Number’ must be confi gured on ‘Page 43’. By entering the value ‘80’ into the ‘Remote Management Port Number’ the Network Service List can be accessed by typing: http://hostname.dyndns.org/hosts.htm -OR- http://hostname.tzo.com/hosts.com depending on the service you’re subscribed with.

You can also log into your network service list by just typing: http://hostname.dyndns.org - OR- http://hostname.tzo.com depending on your service. You will be prompted for your user name and password. Once entered, you can click on the large ‘Network Service List’ link. It is not recom- mended that you give this username and password out to guests; this method of connection should only be utilized by yourself or the administrator of the network.

NOTE: By allowing remote management over a port number you allow access into your AirStation from the Internet without a VPN connection. This is a potential security risk especially if you have not setup an ad- ministrator password on the AirStation. Even with a password set, a user on the internet could log into your Network Service List and see all of the information regarding your network. Fortunately they would NOT have access to remote control, fi le sharing, or Wake-On-LAN, but they will still be able to see what comput- ers and devices are on your network. For some this may be considered a security risk.
