Enabling Remote Management Access

Using the Remote Management page, you can allow a user or users on the Internet to configure,
upgrade and check the status of your RP614v4 router.
Note: Be sure to change the router's default configuration password to a very secure
password. The ideal password should contain no dictionary words from any
language, and should be a mixture of letters (both upper and lower case), numbers,
and symbols. Your password can be up to 30 characters.

1. From the Main Menu of the browser interface, under Advanced, click on Remote Management
Figure 4-10
2. Check the Turn Remote Management On check box.
3. Specify what external addresses will be allowed to access the router's remote management.
