Enabling Remote Administration It is possible to administer the Gateway
from the Internet. To do this:
1 Check the Enable administration from an Internet Host box
2 For added security, you may specify the IP address of the remote system. This will
prevent other remote hosts from accessing the administration pages. If you wish
to allow any remote host to administer the Gateway, type 0.0.0.0 in the Host IP
Address box.
3 To remotely administer your Gateway, enter http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8000 in the
location bar of the browser running on the remote computer, where
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the Internet IP address of the Gateway. You may then login using
the administration password.
