Remote Management Configuration

11.1 Remote Management Overview

Remote management allows you to determine which services/protocols can access which Prestige
interface (if any) from which computers.
When you configure remote management to allow management from the WAN, you still need to
configure a filter rule to allow access. See the firewall chapters for details on configuring filter rules.
You may manage your Prestige from a remote location via:
Internet (WAN only)
LAN only,
When you Choose WAN only or ALL (LAN & WAN), you still need to configure a firewall rule to
allow access.
To disable remote management of a service, select Disable in the corresponding Server Access field.
You may only have one remote management session running at a time. The Prestige automatically
disconnects a remote management session of lower priority when another remote management session
of higher priority starts. The priorities for the different types of remote management sessions are as
follows.
1. Telnet
2. HTTP

11.1.1 Remote Management Limitations

Remote management over LAN or WAN will not work when:
♦ A filter in SMT menu 3.1 (LAN) or in menu 11.5 (WAN) is applied to block a Telnet, FTP or
Web service.
♦
You have disabled that service in one of the remote management screens.
♦
The IP address in the Secured Client IP field does not match the client IP address. If it does
not match, the Prestige will disconnect the session immediately.
♦
There is already another remote management session with an equal or higher priority running.
You may only have one remote management session running at one time.
♦ There is a filler rule that blocks it.

11.1.2 Remote Management and NAT

When NAT is enabled:
♦
Use the Prestige's WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN.
♦ Use the Prestige's LAN IP address when configuring from the LAN.
