Remote Management Screens

This chapter provides information on the Remote Management screens.

12.1 Remote Management Overview

Remote management allows you to determine which services/protocols can access which of the ZyXEL Device’s interfaces (if any) from which computers.

You may manage your ZyXEL Device from a remote location via:

Table 47 Remote Management Overview

WLAN

ALL (LAN and WLAN)

LAN only

Neither (Disable).

To disable remote management of a service, select Disable in the corresponding Server Access field.

You may only have one remote management session running at a time. The ZyXEL Device automatically disconnects a remote management session of lower priority when another remote management session of higher priority starts. The priorities for the different types of remote management sessions are as follows.

1Telnet

2HTTP

12.1.1Remote Management Limitations

Remote management over LAN or WLAN will not work when:

1You have disabled that service in one of the remote management screens.

2The IP address in the Secured Client IP field does not match the client IP address. If it does not match, the ZyXEL Device will disconnect the session immediately.

3There is already another remote management session with an equal or higher priority running. You may only have one remote management session running at one time.

12.1.2System Timeout

There is a default system management idle timeout of five minutes (three hundred seconds). The ZyXEL Device automatically logs you out if the management session remains idle for longer than this timeout period. The management session does not time out when a statistics screen is polling. You can change the timeout period in the System screen
