Test Mode
The 'test mode' allows you to check the configured access
protection. If the test mode is activated, access protection remains
active until the TPG is rebooted. After restarting, the protection is no
longer effective.
The 'test mode' option is activated by default. After a successful
test, you must deactivate the test mode so that access protection
remains permanently active.
Proceed as follows:
1. Start the TPG Control Center.
2. Select SECURITY - TCP port access.
3. Tick Port access control.
4. Select the desired protection in the Security level area.
5. In the Exceptions area, define the network elements which are
excluded from port blocking. Enter the IP or MAC addresses and
tick the options.
6. Make sure that the test mode is enabled.
7. Click Save & Restart to confirm.
The settings are saved.
The port access control is activated until the device is restarted.
8. Check the port access and configurability of the TPG.
If the TPG can no longer be reached using the TPG Control Center,
restart the device; see: Ö78.
9. Clear Test mode.
10. Click Save & Restart to confirm.
ª The settings are saved. The port access control is active. Access
to the ports is restricted.
