how to access sophos xg 135 using a browser remotely

Jan,

Web Admin is disabled by default on WAN zone. Go to Administration > Device Access and enable WebAdmin on WAN zone.

Remember that allowing WebAdmin from WAN can be risky. Use a VPN instead.

Thanks

I'm very new to XG but rather familiar with UTM, in UTM there is an option to enter "allowed" IPs that are able to connect to webadmin from external without making a VPN-connection. Is there still a possibility to do the same for XG or is it just all or nothing from WAN?

Under the Administration > Device Access you can use ACL Exception Rule to allow Webadmin page from only allowed IP. Allowing Web Interface from WAN is not a best practice.

Thanks lferrara,

This solution worked for me on my XG-135.

I thought i was going crazy!
