Advanced Configuration
40
External Admin. Port: Specifies the CPU port number through which an
administrator will manage the router through the WAN port if the
External Administration feature has been activated. The default value of
port 80 is the same CPU port used for LAN administrator. For this reason,
it is recommended that you choose another CPU port number if you
activate External Administration or if there is a Web server on your LAN.
If you make any changes to the administrator’s profile, click the Apply
button to activate the changes on the router.

activated on the router until you either power cycle the unit or reboot
the device using this function.
Clicking the Execute button displays the confirmation prompt in Figure
