<Connection Management> Tab
The <Connection Management> tab allows enabling or disabling connection management, and to specify the IP address of
the connection manager.
In a managed connection, an external <Connection Managerment> Server communicates with and can remotely control and
configure the device. Additionally, the connection manager can locate an appropriate peer for the device to connect to and
initiate the connection. <Connection management> can greatly simplify the administration effort for a large, complex system.
The Connection Management parameters can also be configured using the Webpage Administration Interface.
