3.8.4.4 Remote Administration

It is possible to access and control L13 not only from within the home network, but also from the Internet. This allows

you to view or change settings while travelling. It also enables you to allow your ISP to change settings or help you

troubleshoot functionality or communication issues from a remote location.

Note: Remote Web Administration disabled in default system configuration

Remote access to L13 is blocked by default to ensure the security of your home network. However, remote access is

supported by the following services, and you may use the Remote Administration screen to selectively enable these

services if they are needed.

To view L13 remote administration options, click the Management menu item under the System tab, or the Remote

Administration icon in the Advanced screen. The Remote Administration screen appears.

Allow Incoming Access to Web-Management - Used to obtain access to the WBM and to all system settings and

parameters using a browser. Both secure (HTTPS) and non-secure (HTTP) access is available.

Allow Incoming Access to the Telnet Server - Used to create a command-line session and gain access to all system

settings and parameters (using a text-based terminal).

Note: Web Management and Telnet may be used to modify settings of the firewall or disable it. The user may also

change local IP addresses and other settings, making it difficult or impossible to access the gateway from the home

network. Therefore, remote access to Telnet or HTTP services should be blocked and should only be permitted when it

is absolutely necessary.

Diagnostic Tools – The tool is used for troubleshooting and remote system management by you or your Internet

Service Provider. The utilities that can be used are Ping and Traceroute (over UDP).

3.8.4.5 TR-069

between a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE –L13) and an Auto Configuration Server (ACS).
