Chapter 6. Basic Configuration
You also select what kind of authentication will be performed for the users trying to access the administration interfaces.
To further increase security, the Telecommuting Module can only be configured from one or a few computers that are accessed from one of these interfaces. Enter the IP address or addresses that can configure the Telecommuting Module. The IP addresses can belong to one or more computers. For each IP address or interval of addresses, select which configuration protocols are allowed.
Configuration Allowed Via Interface
This setting specifies whether configuration traffic is allowed via this interface. If you only allow configuration via eth1, configuration traffic will only be allowed from computers connected to the eth1 interface, regardless of which IP address the configuration traffic is directed to or which IP addresses the computers have.
The choices for each interface are On and Off. This configuration is a complement to the Configuration Computers setting below.
User Authentication For Web Interface Access
Select the mode of administrator authentication for logins via the web interface: Local users, via a RADIUS database, or a choice between the two alternatives at login (Local users or RADIUS database).
Local administrator users and their passwords are defined on the User Administration page under Administration. If the authentication should be made by help of a RADIUS server, you must enter one on the RADIUS page.
When connecting to the administration interface via SSH, you can only log in as admin.
Configuration Transport
Select Telecommuting Module IP addresses for the allowed configuration protocols. The Telecommuting Module web server will listen for web traffic on the IP addresses and ports selected under HTTP and HTTPS.
