Chapter 7 – Reference Manual
With these settings applied, the administrator will be able to connect to devices behind the P560 on
interface ixp0, if these devices use address in the range: 10.0.0.2 ... 10.0.0.254. The administrator is
connecting via the Internet (from ixp1 interface).
The administrator’s computer can have an address from 10.10.0.1 to 10.10.0.254.
The P560 interface eth0 has two IP addresses – 192.168.3.1 and 10.0.0.1.
Please note that devices which are using 10.0.0.2. – 10.0.0.254 addresses have
access to the administrative network too!
In this example, the administrative network uses the reserved IP address (10.x.x.x) – they are not
routed in the Internet, so the administrator should setup routers in a path between the P560 and the
administrator's computer to recognize 10.x.x.x addresses and route them correctly. This is not
comfortable and sometimes it is impossible. There is a solution – the administrator can use “PPTP
client for VPN“ (or GRE tunnel) (see:
) to setup a tunnel between the
administrator's computer and the P560. The only addresses visible on the Internet will be the P560
WAN IP address and the administrator's computer (or router) IP address.
