Remote Management Configuration
This chapter provides information on configuring remote management. Remote management
is not available on all models
9.1 Remote Management Overview
Remote management allows you to determine which services/protocols can access which
BIPAC-5100S interface (if any) from which computers.
You may manage your BIPAC-5100S from a remote location via:
Internet (WAN only) ALL (LAN and WAN)
LAN only Neither (Disable)
To disable remote management of a service, select Disable in the corresponding Server
Access field.
9.1.1 Remote Management Limitations
Remote management over LAN or WAN will not work when:
1. A filter is applied to block a Telnet, FTP or Web service.
2. You have disabled that service in one of the remote management screens.
3. The IP address in the Secured Client IP field does not match the client IP address.
If it does not
4. There is already another remote management session of the same type (web, FTP
or Telnet) running. You may only have one remote management session of the
same type running at one time.
5. There is a web remote management session running with a Telnet session. A Telnet
session will be disconnected if you begin a web session; it will not begin if there
already is a web session.
9.1.2 Remote Management and NAT
When NAT is enabled:
Use the BIPAC-5100S’s WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN.
Use the BIPAC-5100S’s LAN IP address when configuring from the LAN.
9.1.3 System Timeout
There is a system timeout of five minutes (three hundred seconds) for telnet/web/FTP
connections. Your BIPAC-5100S automatically logs you out if you do nothing in this timeout
