Enabling Remote Management AccessUsing the Remote Management page, you can allow an administrator on the Internet to configure,
upgrade, and check the status of your VPN firewall. You must be logged in locally to enable
remote management (see “Logging in to the VPN Firewall” on page 2-1).
To configure your firewall for Remote Management:
1. Select the Turn Remote Management On check box.
Note: The password and time-out value you enter will be changed back to password
and 5 minutes, respectively, after a factory defaults reset.
Note: Be sure to change the firewall default configuration password to a very secure
password. The ideal password should contain no dictionary words from any
language, and should be a mixture of letters (both upper and lower case), numbers,
and symbols. Your password can be up to 30 characters. See “Changing Passwords
and Settings” on page 6-7 for the procedure on how to do this.
