Configuring HTTPS
You can enable ZoneAlarm router users to access the ZoneAlarm Portal from the Internet.
To do so, you must first configure HTTPS.
Note: Configuring HTTPS is equivalent to creating a simple Allow rule, where the
destination is This Gateway. To create more complex rules for HTTPS, such as
allowing HTTPS connections from multiple IP address ranges, define Allow rules for
TCP port 443, with the destination This Gateway. For information, see Using Rules
on page
172.
To configure HTTPS
1. Click Setup in the main menu, and click the Management tab.
The Management page appears.
2. Specify from where HTTPS access to the ZoneAlarm Portal should be granted.
See Access Options on page
340 for information.
Warning: If remote HTTPS is enabled, your ZoneAlarm router settings can be
changed remotely, so it is especially important to make sure all ZoneAlarm router
users’ passwords are difficult to guess.
