2.1.4. The CLI Chapter 2. Management and Maintenance Controlling Access to the Web Interface By default, the Web Interface is accessible only from the internal network. If you need to enable access from other parts of the network, you can do so by modifying the remote management policy. Example 2.1. Enabling remote management via HTTPS Command-Line Interface gw-world:/> add RemoteManagement RemoteMgmtHTTP https Network=all-nets Interface=any LocalUserDatabase=AdminUsers HTTPS=Yes Web Interface 1. Go to System > Remote Management > Add > HTTP/HTTPS Management 2. Enter a Name for the HTTP/HTTPS remote management policy, for example https 3. Check the HTTPS checkbox 4. Select the following from the dropdown lists: • User Database: AdminUsers • Interface: any • Network: all-nets 5. Click OK Caution: Don't expose the management interface The above example is provided for informational purposes only. It is never recommended to expose any management interface to any user on the Internet. Logging out from the Web Interface When you have finished working in the Web Interface, you should always logout to prevent other users with access to your workstation to get unauthorized access to the system. Logout by clicking on the Logout button at the right of the menu bar. Tip: Correctly routing management traffic If there is a problem with the management interface when communicating alongside VPN tunnels, check the main routing table and look for an all-nets route to the VPN tunnel. Management traffic may be using this route. If no specific route is set up for the management interface then all management traffic coming from NetDefendOS will automatically be routed into the VPN tunnel. If this is the case then a route should be added by the administrator to route management traffic destined for the management network to the correct interface. 2.1.4. The CLI NetDefendOS provides a Command Line Interface (CLI) for administrators who prefer or require a command line approach to administration, or who need more granular control of system configuration. The CLI is available either locally through the serial console port (connection to this 33
