REMOTE ADMINISTRATION
7.5/
Caution:
Enabling Remote Administration places your Fios Router network
at risk from outside attacks.
You can access and control your Fios Router not only from
within the local network, but also from the Internet using Remote
Administration.
You can allow incoming access to the following:
•
Web Management - used to obtain access to your Fios Router's
GUI and gain access to all settings and parameters through a
web browser.
•
Diagnostic Tools - used for troubleshooting and remote system
management by a user or Verizon.
Web Management remote administration access may be used to
modify or disable firewall settings. Local IP addresses and other
settings can also be changed, making it difficult or impossible
to access your Fios Router from the local network. Remote
administration access to SSH or Web Management services should
be activated only when absolutely necessary.
Note:
Encrypted remote administration is performed using a secure SSL
connection and requires a SSL certificate. When accessing your Fios
Router for the first time using encrypted remote administration, a warning
page opens with a certificate authentication message displayed. This
is due to your Fios Router SSL certificate being self-generated. When
this message display under that circumstance, ignore the message and
continue. Even though this message displays, the self-generated certificate
is safe and provides a secure SSL connection.
