Configuring Remote Management for the router from external
networks
Remote management means that your router can be configured by a PC that is outside your
local network, all with the help of a standard Web browser. The default settings for your
router mean that it can only be configured from your local network.
¤
Open the following Web page:
Router Settings
¢
Administration
¢
Remote Management
.
¤
In the
Remote Management
field highlight the
On
option if you want to permit remote
management.
¤
If you want to restrict remote management to a particular PC, you should also enter the
IP address of this PC in the
IP Address
field. Entering 0.0.0.0 means that remote manage-
ment from any PC is enabled.
¤
If you enter a port number in a
Public Port
field, access to remote management is only
possible via this port (default port = 80).
¤
Click
Set
to apply the settings.
Please note:
If you have forgotten your router password, you will have to reset your Gigaset CE 450 IP R at the base
station (page 56).
Please note
that doing so will reset
all
settings on the base station phone and the
base station router to the default settings.
Please note:
If you want to restrict remote management to one particular PC, you must ensure that the IP address
was not dynamically assigned to this PC.
