System Remote Management

This chapter shows you how to determine which services/protocols can access which
ZyWALL zones (if any) from which computers.
To allow the ZyWALL to be accessed from a specified computer using a
service, make sure you do not have a service control rule or to-ZyWALL rule to
block that traffic.
36.1 Remote Management Overview
You may manage your ZyWALL from a remote location via:
• Internet (WAN only)
• LAN only
To disable remote management of a service, deselect Enable in the corresponding service
screen.
36.1.1 Remote Management Limitations
Remote management will not work when:
1 You have disabled that service in the corresponding screen.
2 The accepted IP address in the Service Control table does not match the client IP
address. If it does not match, the ZyWALL will disconnect the session immediately.
3 There is a firewall rule that blocks it.
36.1.2 System Timeout
There is a lease timeout for administrators. The ZyWALL automatically logs you out if the
management session remains idle for longer than this timeout period. The management session
does not time out when a statistics screen is polling.
Each user is also forced to log in the ZyWALL for authentication again when the
reauthentication time expires.
