CRADLEPOINT
8.1.4 Remote Management
Allows a user to enable incoming WAN pings or to change settings for the router from the Internet using the router's
Internet address.
Allow WAN pings: When enabled the functionality allows an external WAN client to ping the router.
Allow Remote Web Administration: When remote administration is enabled it allows access to these administration web
pages from the Internet. With it disabled, you must be a client on the local network to access the administration website.
For security, remote access is usually done via a non-standard http port. Additionally, encrypted connections can be
required for an added level of security.
• Require HTTPS Connection: Requiring a secure (https) connection is recommended.
• HTTP Port: Default: 8080. This option is disabled if you select "Require Secure Connection".
• Secure HTTPS Port: Default: 8443.
NOTE: You can restrict remote access to only specified IP addresses in Network Settings ! Firewall under Remote Administration Access
Control.
Allow Remote SSH Access: This will enable SSH access to the router from the Internet. It is only available when the
SSH access is enabled in the Local Management tab.
Some Carriers block the remote SSH Access ports. If a ping to the router's WAN port does not work, it is unlikely that
remote SSH Access will work.
