Figure 26. Remote Administration security settings.
Remote Administrator Host: Setting this to ‘Enable’ will allow users on the WAN port to manage the router. If the
address is set as 0.0.0.0, then any device on the WAN port can become the administrator. If a unique IP address is
specified, then only a device with the same IP address can access the router via the WAN port. Setting the subnet bits
“/nn” will allow a group of administrators to have access.
Note: When Remote Administration is enabled, the web server port will be shifted to 88.
Administrator Time-out: If there is no admin activity via the WAN port for X seconds, then the administrator is logged
out. Setting this value to zero disables this function.
Discard PING from WAN side: When this feature is enabled, any host on the WAN cannot ping this product.
