• SNMP. The VPN firewall supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to let
you monitor and manage log resources from an SNMP-compliant system manager. The SNMP
system configuration lets you change the system variables for MIB2.
• Diagnostic Functions. The VPN firewall incorporates built-in diagnostic functions such as
Ping, Trace Route, DNS lookup, and remote reboot.
• Remote Management. The VPN firewall allows you to login to the Web Management

management access to a specified remote IP address or range of addresses.
