    RUCKUS ICX devices can be accessed and managed remotely through the web management interface.

Web management access is allowed through HTTP or HTTPS. Web management access over HTTPS is enabled by default. You can also regulate access to management functions from the web management interface based on the IPv4 address, IPv6 address, and MAC address of the client.
