Remote Management
Remote Management allows the DI-784 to be configured from the Internet by a web
browser. A username and password is still required to access the Web-Management
interface. In general, only a member of your network can browse the built-in web pages
to perform “Administrator” tasks. This feature enables you to perform “Administrator”
tasks from the remote (Internet) host.
IP Address:
Internet IP Address of the computer that has access to the Router. It is not
recommended that you set the IP Address to * (star), because this allows any Internet
IP Address to access the Router, which could result in a loss of security for your network.
If you elect to enable
Remote Management
, make sure to enter the IP Address of the
remote computer allowed to configure the DI-784.
Port:
For security purposes, select a separate port number used to access the Router.
(
The following is an example only; you may use a different port number.)
Example:
http://x.x.x.x:8080
where x.x.x.x is the WAN IP Address of the Router and
8080 is the port used for the Web-Management interface.
