All other commands (such as 'cd', 'ls', 'trace', etc...) can be used by all users.
The user must possess at least write access to be able to operate commands
that cause changes to the system (e.g. 'do' or 'time').
Note: The commands listed above are not available in all LCOS versions or
BAT models.
4.8.5 HTTP tunnel
In some cases it can be useful to enable temporary HTTP access to a station
within a LAN. For example, if questions come up concerning network devices
such as a BAT VP-100, the Support department is best able to assist with di-
rect access to the device in the customer's LAN. The standard method for ac-
cessing LAN devices via inverse masquerading (port forwarding) sometimes
requires a special configuration of the firewall—changes are made which, if
they are not deleted again afterwards, can represent a security risk.
As an alternative to permanent access which is based on port forwarding, a
temporary HTTP access can be set up that automatically closes again after
certain periods of inactivity. To this end, a support staff member requiring ac-
cess to a device in the customer's network, for example, creates an "HTTP"
tunnel providing this access.
Note: This access only applies to the IP address that was the source of the
HTTP tunnel. Network access to devices released in this way is not trans-
ferable!
