The Remote Administration is what you are using right now. Please note that after setting the Remote Adminstration to inactive, you will need to use interactive (nxserver.exe /interactive) mode to reenable it.
<br>Available options:<br><br>
<p class=h3><span>Event Log Enabled</span></p>
<p>When this option is checked, the transport writes log information to the Event Log.</p>
<p class=h3><span>Port</span></p>
<p>The port the remote administration runs on. Please make sure that the port used is cleared to pass any firewalls involved. The default port is 10088.</p>
<p class=h3><span>Authentication Method</span></p>
The authentication method can be <b>NONE</b> or <b>BASIC</b>. Basic authentication, pops up a username & password dialog on the calling web browser and authenticates these against the user list in NexusDB.
<p class=h3><span>HTTPS</span></p>
If the server is SSL/TLS enabled, you will connect to this page using HTTPS. In such case the following options will be available:<br><br>
<p class=h3><span>Bulk Cipher</span></p>
The bulk cipher methods can be <b>AESCBC</b> or <b>RC4</b>. The AES-CBC bulk cipher is recommended if both the client side SSL/TLS library and the server side SSL/TLS library is up to date. Otherwise RC4 is recommended. However, if you use RC4, it is important that the admin password is changed frequently.
<p class=h3><span>Key Agreement</span></p>
The key agreement methods can be <b>RSA</b> or <b>DHE</b>. RSA key transport is typically sufficient, but DHE might be considered if the server is used for various forms of remoting that results in sensitive non-persistent data transfer.
<p class=h3><span>Loop Back Only</span></p>
When SSL/TLS is first activated a new root certificate will be generated, and the server will be set to only allow remote administration from a loop back address (127.0.0.1). Before you disable this option, you should export the root certificate using your server side browser, transfer it securely to your client machine, and import it as a trusted authority certificate into your client side browser.
<p class=h3><span>Host Name</span></p>
Set this to the host name of your server, as you will enter it into your browser for connecting to the remote administation interface. The next time the server is restarted after the current server certificate has expired, the host name will be used as the common name of the server certificate.
