CONFIG Commands
Port Renumbering Settings
If you use NAT pinholes to forward HTTP or telnet traffic through your Netopia Gateway to an internal host, you must change the port numbers the Netopia Gateway uses for its own configuration traffic. For example, if you set up a NAT pinhole to forward network traffic on Port 80 (HTTP) to another host, you would have to tell the Netopia Gateway to listen for configuration connection requests on a port number other than 80, such as 6080.
After you have changed the port numbers the Netopia Gateway uses for its configuration traffic, you must use those port numbers instead of the standard numbers when configur- ing the Netopia Gateway. For example, if you move the router's Web service to port “6080” on a box with a system (DNS) name of “superbox”, you would enter the URL http:/ /superbox:6080 in a Web browser to open the Netopia Gateway graphical user interface. Similarly, you would have to configure your telnet application to use the appropriate port when opening a configuration connection to your Netopia Gateway.
set servers web-http [ 1 - 65534 ]
Specifies the port number for HTTP (web) communication with the Netopia Gateway. Because port numbers in the range
set servers telnet-tcp [ 1 - 65534 ]
Specifies the port number for telnet (CLI) communication with the Netopia Gateway. Because port numbers in the range
☛NOTE:
You cannot specify a port setting of 0 (zero) for both the web and telnet ports at the same time. This would prevent you from accessing the Gateway.
