Chapter 6. Administration of the Telecommuting Module
This is the IP address and port which should be entered in your web browser to connect to the Telecommuting
Module.
Configuration via HTTP
Select which IP address and port the Telecommuting Module administrator should direct her web browser to when
HTTP is used for Telecommuting Module configuration. You can select from the Telecommuting Module IP
addresses configured on the Interface pages under Network.
You can use different IP addresses for HTTP and HTTPS configuration.
Configuration via HTTPS
Select which IP address and port the Telecommuting Module administrator should direct her web browser to when
HTTPS is used for Telecommuting Module configuration. You can select from the Telecommuting Module IP
addresses configured on the Interface pages under Network.
You can use different IP addresses for HTTP and HTTPS configuration.
You also need to select a TLS certificate, which works as an ID card, identifying the Telecommuting Module to
your web browser. This will ensure that you are really communicating with your Telecommuting Module and not
somebody else’s computer. TLS uses an encryption method using two keys, one secret and one public. The secret
key is kept in the Telecommuting Module and the public key is used in the certificate. If any of the keys is changed,
the TLS connection won’t work.
The certificate is created on the Certificates page.
Configuration Computers
Enter the IP address or addresses that can configure the Telecommuting Module. The IP addresses can belong to
one or more computers.
Note that you must also allow configuration via the Telecommuting Module interface that the computers are
connected to. See Configuration Allowed Via Interface above.
DNS Name Or Network Address
Enter the DNS name or IP address of the computer or network from which the Telecommuting Module can be
configured. Avoid allowing configuration from a network or computer on the Internet or other insecure networks, or
use HTTPS or VPN to connect to the Telecommuting Module from these insecure networks.
