Testing from the WAN (Internet)

You should be able to substitute your public IP address for your internal one (see your

information gathering checklist) from a PC outside your network (Viewing a AP-

9060/AP-16CO at your office from home or vice-versa) and achieve the same result. For

example, if your public IP address is 96.226.2.104 and your AP-9060/AP-16CO uses port

81 for its web server, you would browse to http://96.226.2.104:81.
