Remote Management - When
enabled, remote management
will allow you to configure your
access point remotely over the
Internet. A port should be speci-
fied between the ranges of 1 and
65535.
The management interface can
then be accessed by your IP Ad-
dress as shown and the port as
in http://244.244.222.130:10500
where 244.244.222.130 is the
WAN IP Address and 10500 is
the specified port.
Reply to Ping from WAN Port - When the AirStation is set to respond to Ping requests, it will
acknowledge its IP Address and various other information from over the Internet. This is useful to
managing remote access points and ensuring uptime, but it can be considered a security breach as
well as it does distribute some minimal information about your router. At the minimum, make sure
you have changed your root (administrator) password with either of these functions enabled.
