Cisco SA 500 Series Security Appliances Administration Guide
Enter the following information:
• Enable Remote Management?: By default, Remote management is
disabled. To enable WAN access to the configuration GUI check the box.
IMPORTANT: When you enable remote management, the security appliance
is accessible to anyone who knows its IP address. Since a malicious WAN
user can reconfigure the security appliance and misuse it in many ways, we
strongly recommend that you change the admin and guest passwords
before continuing.
• Access Type: Choose the level of permission for remote management:
- All IP Addresses: If this option is selected, make sure that you change
the default password.
- IP Address Range: If this option is selected, enter the From: starting IP
address for the allowed range and To: ending IP address for the allowed
range.
• Only this PC: If this option is selected, set the following:
- IP Address: IP Address of the PC given remote management
permissions
• Port Number: Displays the port number used for the remote connection.
• Remote SNMP Enable: Check the box to enable SNMP for the remote
connection.
Click Apply to save your settings, or click Reset to revert to the saved settings.
Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is a device discovery protocol that runs on all
Cisco manufactured equipment. Each CDP enabled device sends periodic
messages to a multicast address and also listens to the periodic messages sent
by others in order to learn about neighboring devices and determine the status of
these devices. This page provides the configuration options to control CDP.
Enabling CDP is not recommended on the Dedicated WAN port and the Optional
ports because they are connected to insecure networks.
