ProSafe Gigabit Quad WAN SSL VPN Firewall SRX5308
5. As an option, you can change the idle time-out for an administrator login session. Enter a
new number of minutes in the Idle Timeout field. (The default setting is 5 minutes.)
6. Click Apply to save your settings.
7. Repeat step 1 through step 6 for the user with the name guest.
Note: After a factory default reset, the password and time-out value are
changed back to password and 5 minutes, respectively.
You can also change the administrator login policies:
Deny login access from a WAN interface. By default, the administrator can log in from a
WAN interface.
Deny or allow login access from specific IP addresses. By default, the administrator can
log in from any IP address.
Note: For enhanced security, restrict access to as few external IP
addresses as practical.
Deny or allow login access from specific browsers. By default, the administrator can log in
from any browser.
In general, these policy settings work well for an administrator. However, if you need to
change any of these policy settings, see Set User Login Policies on page 229.
Configure Remote Management Access
An administrator can configure, upgrade, and check the status of the VPN firewall over the
Internet through either a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) VPN or a Telnet connection, but need
to be logged in locally to enable remote management.
Note: When remote management is enabled and administrative access
through a WAN interface is granted (see Configure Login Policies on
page 229), the VPN firewall’s web management interface is
accessible to anyone who knows its IP address and default
password. Because a malicious WAN user can reconfigure the VPN
firewall and misuse it in many ways, NETGEAR highly recommends
that you change the admin and guest default passwords before
continuing (see Change Passwords and Administrator Settings on
page 248).
