General

This page allows you to define the address and port which the server will be bound to, set the timeout for the server and enable logging of connection to this server.

 

The default port for the Web Admin interface connection is port 8089. The service should only be bound to an address for additional security. In most cases it can be defined as 'Any unbound address'.

 

However, if you are using FTGate on a LAN it is recommended that you bind the Web Admin Interface to a LAN IP address to prevent access from the Internet. Should you need to allow an external administrator access from the Internet, you would need to change this back to 'Any unbound address' on a temporary basis.
