17.3.1 Remote Management Limitations

Remote management over LAN or WAN will not work when:

1

You have disabled that service in one of the remote management screens.

2

The IP address in the Secured Client IP Address field does not match the client
IP address. If it does not match, the NBG-417N will disconnect the session
immediately.

3

There is already another remote management session with an equal or higher
priority running. You may only have one remote management session running at
one time.

4

There is a firewall rule that blocks it.

17.3.2 Remote Management and NAT

When NAT is enabled:

• Use the NBG-417N’s WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN.
• Use the NBG-417N’s LAN IP address when configuring from the LAN.

17.3.3 System Timeout

There is a default system management idle timeout of five minutes (three
hundred seconds). The NBG-417N automatically logs you out if the management
session remains idle for longer than this timeout period. The management session
does not time out when a statistics screen is polling. You can change the timeout
period in the System screen
