Management Access from outside

[tooleyj]

I am setting up a 100D in transparent mode that is being used to separate several classroom networks from our main campus network.  Everything seems to be working and we are able to manage the device from behind the 100D, but we have found that we are unable to access the management interface of the 100D from the campus side of the firewall.  Any ideas?

hi,

first off, it seems to be a good idea to not have the management GUI exposed on every network attached.

That said, mgmt access is controlled in the "System > Network > Interfaces" section of the GUI. For each interface you can enable or disable access by HTTP, HTTPS, SSH and more. HTTPS recommended, SSH discouraged (for a reason).

HTTPS is active on the management interface as it is accessible from the classroom side of the firewall.  The issue is that it seems the firewall is blocking management from passing through itself
