IP Address
To manage this device via the Internet, you need to know the IP Address of this
device, as seen from the Internet. This IP Address is allocated by your ISP, and is
shown here if you are currently connected to the Internet. But if using a Dynamic IP
Address, this value can change each time you connect to your ISP. There are 2
solutions to this problem:
•
Have your ISP allocate you a Fixed IP address.
•
Use the DDNS feature (Internet menu) so you can connect using a Domain
Name, rather than an IP address.
Port Number
Enter a port number between 1024 and 65535. The default for HTTP connections
is port 80, and for HTTPS port 443. Using either of these is NOT recommended.
The default value is 8080.
The port number must be specified in your Browser when you connect, as
explained above.
Allow Remote
Access
This allows you to restrict remote access by IP address. Select the desired option.
•
Everyone
- Remote user's IP address is not checked.
•
IP address range
- Only IP addresses in the range specified will be allowed. If
selected, you must enter both the Start and Finish IP address.
•
Only this PC
- Only the specified IP address is allowed. If selected, you must
enter an IP address in the field provided.
To connect from a remote PC via the Internet
1. Ensure your Internet connection is established, and start your Web Browser.
2. In the Address bar, enter "
https://
" followed by the Internet IP Address of the IP-2000VPN. If the port
number is not 80, the port number is also required. (After the IP Address, enter
“
：
”
followed by the port
number).
e.g. https://123.123.123.123:8080
This example assumes the WAN IP Address is 123.123.123.123, and the port number is 8080.
The IP-2000VPN is only allowed one user to login its Web UI for managing the device, no matter
the user logins the Web UI from Internet or LAN.
If someone already login to IP-2000VPN and without logout the device, the next user will receive a
warning message such as “PC1 (192.168.0.3) is managing this device.”
