This chapter provides information on the Remote Management screens. This chapter is not applicable to the ZyAIR B-2000.

13.1 Remote Management Overview

Remote management allows you to determine which services/protocols can access which ZyAIR interface (if any) from which computers. You can customize the service port, access interface and the secured client IP address to enhance security and flexibility.

When you configure remote management to allow management from the WAN, you still need to configure a firewall rule to allow access. See the firewall chapters for details on configuring firewall rules.

You may manage your ZyAIR from a remote location via:

 

Internet (WAN only)

ALL (LAN and WAN)

LAN only,

Neither (Disable).

When you Choose WAN only or ALL (LAN & WAN), you still need to configure a

firewall rule to allow access.

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

The ZyAIR 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.

1.Console port

2.Telnet

3.HTTP
