10.1.2  Remote Management and NAT
When NAT is enabled:
• Use the ZyXEL Device’s WAN IP address when configuring from the WAN. 
• Use the ZyXEL Device’s LAN IP address when configuring from the LAN.
10.1.3   System Timeout
There is a default system management idle timeout of five minutes (three hundred seconds). 
The ZyXEL Device automatically logs you out if the management session remains idle for 
longer than this timeout period. The management session does not time out when a statistics 
screen is polling. 
10.2  Telnet
You can use Telnet to access the ZyXEL Device’s command line interface. Specify which 
interfaces allow Telnet access and from which IP address the access can come.
10.3  FTP
You can upload and download ZyXEL Device firmware and configuration files using FTP. To 
use this feature, your computer must have an FTP client.
10.4  Web
You can set the ZyXEL Device to use HTTP or HTTPS (HTTPS adds security) for web 
configurator sessions. Specify which interfaces allow web configurator access and from which 
IP address the access can come. 
HTTPS (HyperText Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer, or HTTP over SSL) is a web 
protocol that encrypts and decrypts web pages. Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is an application-
level protocol that enables secure transactions of data by ensuring confidentiality (an 
unauthorized party cannot read the transferred data), authentication (one party can identify the 
other party) and data integrity (you know if data has been changed).
