.
NOTE
It is strongly recommended that the firewall only allow access to the
SSH and HTTPS ports.
This option is very similar to the one depicted in the second diagram, but without
the need of address translation. It also has the same disadvantages, and the firewall
must be configured with an access list of allowed IP addresses, or there is no point
in having a firewall at all. This configuration is not recommended by TANDBERG
Television.

Conclusion

Even though TANDBERG Television has taken every precaution in the iPlex
software to protect it against intrusion and other forms of attack, it is not possible
to guarantee that the iPlex operation will be error-free if it is directly connected to
the Internet without any protection. This document has discussed practical
options for the protection of the iPlex while still allowing some level of access
from the Internet.
Customers are strongly advised to follow these recommendations.
