Hint
The same method can be used to enable or disable remote administration of Kerio MailServer
through WinRoute (the KMS Admin service can be used for this purpose).
Note: Be very careful while defining traffic rules, otherwise you could block remote adminis-
tration from the host you are currently working on. If this happens, the connection between
Administration Console and WinRoute Firewall Engine is interrupted (upon clicking on the Ap-
ply button in Configuration → Traffic Policy). Local connections (from the WinRoute Firewall
Engine’s host) works anyway. Such a traffic cannot be blocked by any rule.
16.2 Update Checking
WinRoute enables automatic check for new versions at the Kerio Technologies website. When-
ever a new version is detected, is download and installation is offered.
Open the Update Checker tab in the Configuration → Advanced Options section to view infor-
mation on a new version and to set parameters for automatic checks for new versions.
Figure 16.2 Check for new WinRoute versions
Last update check performed ... ago
Information on how much time ago the last update check was performed.
If the time is too long (several days) this may indicate that the automatic update checks
fail for some reason (i.e. access to the update server is blocked by a traffic rule). In
such cases we recommend you to perform a check by hand (by clicking on the Check now
button), view results in the Debug log (see chapter 22.6 ) and take appropriate actions.
