By default, the Eicon 1530 allows remote devices to access its configuration interfaces via the external network. This feature can be disabled; however, this does not affect traffic on the local LAN created by the Eicon 1530. If the local LAN is connected to other networks, these computers will continue to have access to the Eicon 1530, even if remote management is disabled. Consider the following topology:
