27.2 What You Need to Know

Remote management over LAN or WAN will not work when:

1The IP address in the Secured Client IP Address field (Section 27.3 on page 204) does not match the client IP address. If it does not match, the NBG4615 will disconnect the session immediately.

2There is already another remote management session. You may only have one remote management session running at one time.

3There is a firewall rule that blocks it.

27.2.1Remote Management and NAT

When NAT is enabled:Use the NBG4615’s WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN.Use the NBG4615’s LAN IP address when configuring from the LAN.

27.2.2System Timeout

There is a default system management idle timeout of five minutes (three hundred seconds). The NBG4615 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
