from being visible to the WAN. For example, pings to
the WAN IP address are not returned

Checking this box allows applications that use IPSec (IP
Security) to pass through the firewall

Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) to pass through the
firewall
Remote Config
Management
Checking this box enables Remote Configuration
Management that allows the user or network operator
to view and/or modify the gateway set-up parameters
from a location on the WAN, as opposed to the LAN
side of the gateway. Access to the set-up parameters is
obtained by using the password to access the
WebWizard.
Enable this feature by checking the
Remote Config
Management
box on the Setup Advanced Settings -
Options page. To access your gateway from a remote
location, you must also know the WAN IP address of
the gateway. To find the WAN IP address, go to the
Network Configuration page under Basic Settings. You
will find the gateway's WAN IP address list on this
page.
Enter the WAN IP address of your gateway into the
address field of any Web browser using the following
format: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080 where
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx represents the WAN IP address of your
gateway.
Be sure to follow the syntax exactly, and then click Go
or press Enter. Your gateway Web pages will appear on
the remote computer. You will still need to enter your
password to access the Setup pages of your gateway
Note:
If you choose to enable (check) this feature, be
sure to set up a user password to prevent unauthorized
access to your gateway settings.

WAN side through to the private network
