5.6 System Management and Maintenance

This section introduces some of the management and maintenance features in the ZyWALL.
Use Host Name to configure the system and domain name for the ZyWALL. Use Date/Time
to configure the current date, time, and time zone in the ZyWALL. Use Console Speed to set
the console speed. Use Language to select a language for the web configurator screens.

5.6.1 DNS, WWW, SSH, TELNET, FTP, SNMP, Dial-in Mgmt, Vantage
CNM

Use these screens to set which services or protocols can be used to access the ZyWALL
through which zone and from which addresses (address objects) the access can come. Use
Dial-in Mgmt for a remote management connection through an external serial modem
connected to the AUX port.

Example: Suppose you want to allow an administrator to use HTTPS to manage the ZyWALL
from the WAN.

1 Create an administrator account (User/Group).
2 Create an address object for the administrator’s computer (Object > Address).
3 Click System > WWW to configure the HTTP management access. Enable HTTPS and

add an administrator service control entry.

• Select the address object for the administrator’s computer.

• Select the WAN zone.

• Set the action to Accept.

5.6.2 File Manager

Use these screens to upload, download, delete, or run scripts of CLI commands. You can
manage

• Configuration files. Use configuration files to back up and restore the complete

configuration of the ZyWALL. You can store multiple configuration files in the ZyWALL
and switch between them without restarting.

• Shell scripts. Use shell scripts to run a series of CLI commands. These are useful for large,

repetitive configuration changes (for example, creating a lot of VPN tunnels) and for
troubleshooting.

You can edit configuration files and shell scripts in any text editor.
