Remote Access Overview
This section describes how to use TZO remote access to access your device's data from any web-
enabled computer in the world.
If TZO remote access was enabled when you upgraded your px6-300d to LifeLine version 4.0 or
higher, the feature will continue to function as it did before. Otherwise this feature no longer
appears. We recommend you use Personal Cloud for remote access. See
Cloud
for more information.
Review the following prerequisites prior to enabling remote access:
Enable Security — Before you can enable remote access, you must have security enabled on
●
your px6-300d Network Storage.
If security is already enabled, you are ready to enable remote access. If not, a pop-up window is
provided to enable security and create an administrator user to manage your secured px6-300d.
Check the internet connection — Your px6-300d requires internet connectivity.
●
Automatically configure the router — Prior to enabling remote access, ensure that your router is
●
UPnP enabled. If you have more than one router on your network, you must only have one router
used as a DHCP Server. Refer to your router documentation for more information. Your px6-300d
attempts to automatically configure your router. However, if it cannot, a warning displays, and you
must manually configure your router to forward a specific port to your px6-300d. Most routers refer
to this as port forwarding or application access, and it is recommended that you refer to your
router's documentation to learn how to set these values.
The following information is needed to manually configure your router:
Device IP Address
○
Port Name — HTTPS
○
Port Number — 443
○
Protocol — TCP
○
Choose a subscription service level — Basic or Premium.
●
Basic — Allows you to define a sub-domain name and choose from a list of domains (Domain
○
Name) to create your web address. A complimentary subscription period with TZO is
included with your purchase of your px6-300d. Once your complimentary subscription period
expires, you must renew your subscription with TZO to continue accessing your px6-300d
remotely.
Premium — Requires you to pay for your registration subscription by following a link before
○
you can complete the enabling remote access process. It allows you to define a top-level
domain name (Domain Name), or use one that you already own, such as yourname.com
Create a Web Address for your Device — You create a web address to access your px6-300d
●
by specifying a Domain Name.
