SunScreen 3.2 Administrator's Overview

Remote Administration

For remote administration of a Screen from an Administration Station, install the software packages, including SunScreen SKIP and/or IKE, on separate systems, as shown in the figure below. In the figure, a remote Administration Station on the internal network administers the Screen located between the internal network and the Internet. This Screen is the router between the internal network and the Internet. A second remote Administration Station for this Screen is located on the external network. Note that communication between a remote Administration Station and a Screen must be encrypted.
