10.9 Remote Access
Remote Access enables the Administrator to remotely provision the router over a secure
SSL-based Web User Interface. He can also perform remote software upgrades and
remote monitoring to ensure smooth operation of the network. In case of external attacks,
the administrator can use the logging provided b y the router to locate what kind of attack
has happened, when it has taken place and which device may have played a role in it. The
administrator can then decide on what firewall policies to add to prevent future attacks
(or take necessary steps to correct any internal device p roblem). Once the problem is
corrected, the logs can be used to verify the smooth and correct operation of the router.
