Enabling Remote Management

You can access and manage the device not only from within the home network, but also
from the Internet. This allows you to view or change settings while travelling. It also
enables you to allow your ISP to change settings or help you troubleshoot functionality or
communication issues from a remote location.
Remote access to the device is blocked by default to ensure the security of your home
network. However, remote access is supported by the following services, and you may use
the 'Remote Access Configuration' screen to selectively enable these services if they are
needed.
Notes:
Telnet and Web-Management can be used to modify the settings of the firewall or
to disable it. You can also change local IP addresses and other settings, making it
difficult or impossible to access the device from the home network. Therefore,
remote access to Telnet or HTTP services should be blocked and should only be
permitted when absolutely necessary.
Encrypted remote administration is done using a secure SSL connection that
requires an SSL certificate. When accessing the device for the first time using
encrypted remote administration, you are prompted by your browser with a
warning regarding certificate authentication. This is because the device's SSL
certificate is self-generated. When encountering this message under these
circumstances, ignore it and continue. It should be noted that even though this
message appears, the self-generated certificate is safe, and provides you with a
secure SSL connection. You can also assign a user-defined certificate to the
device.
