Remote Management Screens 
This chapter provides information on the Remote Management screens.  
14.1 Remote Management Overview 
Remote management allows you to determine which services/protocols can access which 
HomeSafe interface (if any) from which computers. 
When you configure remote management to allow 
management from the WAN, you still need to configure a 
firewall rule to allow access. See the firewall chapters for 
details on configuring firewall rules. 
You may manage your HomeSafe from a remote location via: 
¾  Internet (WAN 
only) 
¾  ALL (LAN and WAN) 
¾  LAN only,  
¾  Neither (Disable). 
When you Choose WAN only or ALL (LAN & WAN), you still 
need to configure a firewall rule to allow access. 
To disable remote management of a service, select Disable in the corresponding Server Access 
field. 
You may only have one remote management session running at a time. The HomeSafe 
automatically disconnects a remote management session of lower priority when another remote 
management session of higher priority starts. The priorities for the different types of remote 
management sessions are as follows. 
1.  Console port 
2.  Telnet 
3.  HTTP 
14.1.1 Remote Management Limitations 
Remote management over LAN or WAN will not work when: 
1.  A filter in SMT menu 3.1 (LAN) or in menu 11.5 (WAN) is applied to block a Telnet, 
FTP or Web service.  
2.  You have disabled that service in one of the remote management screens.
