If you use NAT pinholes to for ward HTTP or telnet traffic through your Netopia Gateway to
an internal host, you must change the por t numbers the Netopia Gateway uses for its own
configuration traffic. For example, if you set up a NAT pinhole to for ward network traffic on
Por t 80 (HTTP) to another host, you would have to tell the Netopia Gateway to listen for
configuration connection requests on a por t number other than 80, such as 6080.
After you have changed the por t numbers the Netopia Gateway uses for its configuration
traffic, you must use those por t numbers instead of the standard numbers when configur-
ing the Netopia Gateway. For example, if you move the router's Web ser vice to por t
“6080” on a box with a system (DNS) name of “superbox”, you would enter the URL
http:/
/superbox:6080 in a Web browser to open the Netopia Gateway graphical user inter face.
Similarly, you would have to configure your telnet application to use the appropriate por t
when opening a configuration connection to your Netopia Gateway.
set servers web-http [ 1 - 65534 ]
Specifies the por t number for HTTP (web) communication with the Netopia Gateway.
Because por t numbers in the range 0-1024 are used by other protocols, you should use
numbers in the range 1025-65534 when assigning new por t numbers to the Netopia Gate-
way web configuration inter face. A setting of
0 (zero) will turn the server off.
set servers telnet-tcp [ 1 - 65534 ]
Specifies the por t number for telnet (CLI) communication with the Netopia Gateway.
Because por t numbers in the range 0-1024 are used by other protocols, you should use
numbers in the range 1025-65534 when assigning new por t numbers to the Netopia Gate-
way telnet configuration inter face. A setting of
0 (zero) will turn the server off.
☛
NOTE:
You cannot specify a por t setting of 0 (zero) for both the web and telnet ports
at the same time. This would prevent you from accessing the Gateway.
