Testing from the WAN (Internet)

You should be able to substitute your public IP address for your internal one (see your
information gathering checklist) from a PC outside your network (Viewing a AP-
9060/AP-16CO at your office from home or vice-versa) and achieve the same result. For
example, if your public IP address is 96.226.2.104 and your AP-9060/AP-16CO uses port
81 for its web server, you would browse to

http://96.226.2.104:81
