Create an address object for the administrator’s computer (Configuration > 
Object > Address).

Click Configuration > System > WWW to configure the HTTP management 
access. Enable HTTPS and add an administrator service control entry.

• Set the action to Accept.

The ZyWALL provides a system log, offers two e-mail profiles to which to send log 
messages, and sends information to four syslog servers. It can also e-mail you 
statistical reports on a daily basis.

Use these screens to upload, download, delete, or run scripts of CLI commands. 
You can manage

• Configuration files. Use configuration files to back up and restore the complete 

configuration of the ZyWALL. You can store multiple configuration files in the 

ZyWALL and switch between them without restarting.

• Shell scripts. Use shell scripts to run a series of CLI commands. These are useful 

for large, repetitive configuration changes (for example, creating a lot of VPN 

tunnels) and for troubleshooting.

You can edit configuration files and shell scripts in any text editor.

The ZyWALL can generate a file containing the ZyWALL’s configuration and 
diagnostic information. It can also capture packets going through the ZyWALL’s 
interfaces so you can analyze them to identify network problems. 

Use this to shutdown the device in preparation for disconnecting the power.
