Allowing access from other networks
The default setting for your phone is set such that you can only access your phone's Web
configurator via a PC that is in the same local network as your phone. The subnet mask of
the PC must match that of the phone.
You can also allow access from PCs in other networks.
¤ Open the following Web page: Settings ¢ IP Configuration.
¤ In the Remote Management area, activate the Yes option to permit access from other net-
works.
To deactivate remote access, click No. Access is then limited to PCs in your own local net-
work.
Access to the Web configurator services from other networks is only possible if your router
is set accordingly. The router must pass on the service requests from "outside" to Port 80
(default port) of the phone. Please also read the user guide for your router.
To establish a connection, the public IP address or the DNS name of the router and, where
applicable, the port number on the router must be indicated in the Web browser of the
remote PC.
Warning:
Expansion of access entitlement to other networks increases the risk of unauthorised access.
It is therefore recommended that you deactivate remote access again if you no longer require it.
