Remote Access
When you click Remote Access, the Enable Remote Access page appears.
This link allows you to authorize a remotely-located person, such as a support technician,
to directly access your Motorola Netopia® Gateway. This is useful for fixing configuration
problems when you need expert help. You can limit the amount of time such a person will
have access to your Gateway. This will prevent unauthorized individuals from gaining
access after the time limit has expired.
• Enter a temporary password for the person you want to authorize.
• Select a Timeout period for this password, from the pull-down menu (5 – 30 minutes,
or Unlimited). Remote Access authorization lasts for a selected period of inactivity, after
which it is automatically disabled again, to protect against unauthorized access
attempts to your Router. Selecting Unlimited will enable remote access until the Router
is rebooted. Be sure to tell the authorized person what the password is, and for how
long the time-out is set.
• “Permanent” remote access to the router (i.e. access which is not disabled after the
router is rebooted) may be configured in the CLI. See the command “
set ip dsl vccn
restrictions { admin-disabled | none }” on page 216. To make remote access “perma-
nent,” you would use the option none. This is not a recommended practice, but may
be needed for some applications.
Click the Enable button. You can manually disable it, before the timeout period ends,
by clicking the Disable button, or by restarting the Router.
