5.3.2. WAN Management
Some firmware versions allow you to establish control over it, but the feature does exist in all Bytton
equipments –
management of the machine via Web page from the remote, WAN side, as opposed to the
local, LAN side.
This control Enables of Disables the management of the Bytton LTE
equipment over the WAN side. By default, the management from WAN
is enabled (permitted).
“Management” means the access to the Web configuration page of the equipment and of SSH from the
WAN side. By default, it is
Enabled
, which means the you can access the web pages of Bytton not only
form the local network, but also from the remote (WAN) side.
When you set it to Disabled instead, the configurations pages of Bytton LTE and SSH will be
closed (no longer accessible) from the WAN side. In this case you will be able to access the Web
configuration page of Bytton only form the BR0 (Ethernet and WiFi) side.
Note
:
Here “WAN” refers to all distant (as opposed to local) networks, be they Ethernet connections,
PPP link over the 3G+ mobile module, PPP over Ethernet, IPSEC or GRE secure tunnels for VPN, etc.
The current firmware version (
topex-3.0.1-FA-S)
does
not
have this control, which means that Web
management via WAN is always enabled!
As you can see in the following examples, the Web interface for configuring Bytton LTE is accessible both
on the local side (addresses in range 10.0.0.xxx):
And also on the WAN side (addresses in class 192.168.1.yyy):
