Setting up Remote Management

Remote Management enables a PC that is not on your local network to be used to con-
figure the Gigaset SE361 WLAN with a standard Web browser. You can permit Remote
Management for one particular PC or for any PCs.
For security reasons this function is only available if you have previously changed the
system password for your device (see page 66).
ì
In the Administration menu, select System Management.
ì
Select the On option for Remote Management if you wish to allow Remote Man-
agement.
You can start remote administration by entering the public IP address in your Internet
browser. As many Internet providers change this address each time someone dials in, it
is also advisable to use dynamic DNS (see page 52).
ì
You can change the Port via which you access the configuration program from the
Internet, for example in order to hide and protect the configuration program against
unauthorised access.
ì
Allowed connections: You can specify one particular PC or all PCs in a specific IP
address block for Remote Management, or permit this function for any PCs. Select
the required option from the list.
