ProSafe Gigabit Quad WAN SSL VPN Firewall SRX5308 Reference Manual . Note: For enhanced security, and if practical, restrict remote management access to a single IP address or a small range of IP addresses. Note: To maintain security, the VPN firewall rejects a login that uses http://address rather than the SSL https://address. Note: The first time that you remotely connect to the VPN firewall with a browser via an SSL connection, you might get a warning message regarding the SSL certificate. If you are using a Windows computer with Internet Explorer 5.5 or later, simply click Yes to accept the certificate. Note: If you are unable to remotely connect to the VPN firewall after enabling HTTPS remote management, check if other user policies, such as the default user policy, are preventing access. For access to the VPN firewall's Web Management Interface, check if administrative access through a WAN interface is granted (see "Configuring Login Policies" on page 7-11). Note: If you disable HTTPS remote management, all SSL VPN user connections are also disabled. Tip: If you are using a dynamic DNS service such as TZO, you can identify the WAN IP address of your VPN firewall by running tracert from the Windows Run menu option. Trace the route to your registered FQDN. For example, enter tracert VPN firewall.mynetgear.net, and the WAN IP address that your ISP assigned to the VPN firewall is displayed.
