Remote Management
Remote Management Overview
Remote management controls through which interfaces, which web services (such as HTTPS, SSH, SNMP, and Ping) can access the Zyxel Device.
The Zyxel Device is managed using the Web Configurator.What You Can Do in this Chapter
• Use the MGMT Services screen to allow various approaches to access the Zyxel Device remotely from a WAN and/or LAN connection (MGMT Services).
• Use the Trust Domain screen to enable users to permit access from local management services by entering specific IP addresses (Trust Domain).
MGMT Services
Use this screen to configure the interfaces through which services can access the Zyxel Device. You can also specify service port numbers computers must use to connect to the Zyxel Device. Click Maintenance > Remote Management > MGMT Services to open the following screen.

WAN Interface used for services | Select Any_WAN to have the Zyxel Device automatically activate the remote management service when any WAN connection is up. Select Multi_WAN and then select one or more WAN connections to have the Zyxel Device activate the remote management service when the selected WAN connections are up. |
WWAN | Enable the WWAN (cellular) connection configured in Network Setting > Broadband > Cellular Backup to access the service on the Zyxel Device. |
ETHWAN | Enable the Ethernet WAN connection configured in Network Setting > Broadband > Ethernet WAN to access the service on the Zyxel Device. |
ADSL | Enable the ADSL connection configured in Network Setting > Broadband > Add New WAN Interface or Modify to access the service on the Zyxel Device. |
VDSL | Enable the VDSL WAN connection configured in Network Setting > Broadband > Add New WAN Interface or Modify to access the service on the Zyxel Device. |
GPON | Enable the Gigabit Ethernet Passive Optical Network WAN connection configured in Network Setting > Broadband > Add New WAN Interface or Modify to access the service on the Zyxel Device. |
Service | This is the service you may use to access the Zyxel Device. |
LAN | Select the Enable checkbox for the corresponding services that you want to allow access to the Zyxel Device from the LAN. |
WLAN | Select the Enable checkbox for the corresponding services that you want to allow access to the Zyxel Device from the WLAN. |
WAN | Select the Enable checkbox for the corresponding services that you want to allow access to the Zyxel Device from all WAN connections. |
Trust Domain | Select the Enable checkbox for the corresponding services that you want to allow access to the Zyxel Device from the trusted host IP address. |
Port | You may change the server port number for a service if needed, however you must use the same port number in order to use that service for remote management. |
Redirect | To allow only secure Web Configurator access, select this to redirect all HTTP connection requests to the HTTPS server. For example, if you enter http://192.168.1.1 in your browser to access the Web Configurator, then the Zyxel Device will automatically change this to the more secure https://192.168.1.1 for access. |
Apply | Click Apply to save your changes back to the Zyxel Device. |
Cancel | Click Cancel to restore your previously saved settings. |
Trust Domain
Use this screen to view a list of public IP addresses which are allowed to access the Zyxel Device through the services configured in the Maintenance > Remote Management > MGMT Services screen. Click Maintenance > Remote Management > Trust Domain to open the following screen.
Enter the IP address of the management station permitted to access the local management services. If specific services from the trusted hosts are allowed access but the trust domain list is empty, all public IP addresses can access the Zyxel Device from the WAN using the specified services.Maintenance > Remote Management > Trust Domain
