RMON (Remote Management)

NOTE
NOTE
Cisco SA 500 Series Security Appliances Administration Guide
You can use the Network Management pages to configure remote management
and other features:
• RMON (Remote Management), page 215
• CDP, page 216
• SNMP, page 217
• UPnP, page 219
The primary means to configure this gateway via the browser-independent GUI.
The GUI can be accessed from LAN node by using the gateway's LAN IP address
and HTTP, or from the WAN by using the gateway's WAN IP address and HTTPS
(HTTP over SSL).
The Remote Management page allows you to access the router from a remote
WAN network. The security appliance allows remote management securely using
HTTPS, i.e. https://.
Disabling RMON prevents SSL VPN access.
IMPORTANT: When remote management is enabled, the router is accessible to
anyone who knows its IP address. Since a malicious WAN user can reconfigure the
router and misuse it in many ways, it is highly recommended that you change the
admin and guest passwords before continuing.
