Figure 4-60 Remote Management

¾Web Management Port - Web browser access normally uses the standard HTTP service port 80. This router’s default remote management Web port number is 80. For greater security, you can change the remote management Web interface to a custom port by entering that number in this box provided. Choose a number between 1 and 65534, but do not use the number of any common service port.

¾Remote Management IP Address - This is the current address you will use when accessing your router from the Internet. The default IP Address is 0.0.0.0. It means this function is disabled. To enable this function, change the default IP Address to another IP Address as desired. If it is set to 255.255.255.255, all the hosts can access the router from internet.

To access the router, you will type your router's WAN IP Address into your browser's Address (in IE) or Location (in Navigator) box, followed by a colon and the custom port number. For example, if your Router's WAN address is 202.96.12.8 and you use port number 8080, enter in your browser: http://202.96.12.8:8080. You will be asked for the router's password. After successfully entering the password, you will be able to access the router's Web-based utility.
