Options for remote access to Gargoyle
Posted: Mon Sep 09, 2013 9:19 am
I plan to put a router in a high bandwidth remote location, configured to use OpenVPN. I would like to be able to securely remotely administration of the router.
If I enable SSH access to the router, can I use that to tunnel in to the Gargoyle GUI, or am I forced to use the command line?
Or can I fully disable SSH access and come in over the VPN, and then do administration over that connection?
Is there any reason to enable HTTPS if I have the other options?
What is best practice in this area, other than minimizing the attack surface? This is the first time I will have enabled remote access to a router.
