CyberGuard SG Administrative Web Server
Clicking the CyberGuard SG Web Server tab takes you to the page to configure the
administrative web server. This web server is responsible for running the Web
Management Console.
Here you can change the port on which the server runs. Additionally, the SG550, SG570
and SG575 models support SSL encryption to establish secure connections to the Web
Management Console web administration pages from SSL enabled browsers.

Note
Changing the web server port number is recommended if you are allowing Internet
access to the Management Console. This will help hide the Management Console from
casual web surfers who type your CyberGuard SG appliance’s Internet IP address into a
web browser. Ideally, you should use Packet Filtering rules (see the Packet Filtering
section later in this chapter) to restrict who has access for remote administration.
