Asanté FriendlyNET Internet Router with Firewall
Remote Administration
The router’s administrative functions are normally available only to computers on
the LAN or wireless LAN (WLAN). If you want these administrative functions
available to support individuals outside your network, you will need to enable this
feature.
To enable administration of the router:
1. Enter the IP address of the remote computer. If an IP address of 0.0.0.0 is
entered, then any workstation on the Internet (WAN) can perform router
administration with the correct password.
2. Check
the
Enable box. When this feature is enabled, the remote adminis-
trator must enter the router’s WAN IP address followed by :88 in order to
reach the web port (e.g., 10.0.0.1:88).
To administer the router from a remote location:
1. Start your web browser.
2. In the location field, enter the router’s WAN IP address (e.g., 10.0.0.1).
3. Then enter :88 to reach the router’s web port.
4. Click
the
Apply New Advanced Security Settings button to save your
changes.
Example: To administer the
router (with an IP address of
10.0.0.127), enter
http://10.0.0.127:88 in the
remote browser’s Address
field.
