SYSTEM
ADMINISTRATION
ROUTER SECURITY
When the router
is configured to
use the advanced
security mode,
several aspects
of the routers
configuration
and networking functionality will be extended to support high security
environments. This includes support for multiple user accounts, increased
password security and additional network spoofing filters. If you plan
to use your router in a PCI DSS compliant environment this option is
mandatory.
REMOTE ADMIN
Remote Management allows a user to enable incoming WAN pings or change settings for the router from the
Internet using the router’s Internet address.
Allow WAN pings
– When enabled the functionality allows an external WAN client to ping the router.
Allow Remote Web Administration
– When remote administration is enabled it allows access to these
administration web pages from the Internet. With it disabled, you must be a client on the local network to
access the administration website. For security, remote access is usually done via a non-standard http port.
Additionally, encrypted connections can be required for an added level of security.

•
HTTP Port:
Default – 8080. This option is disabled if you select “Require Secure Connection”
•
Secure HTTPS Port
