ilo exposure to world wide web danger
Hi this is my story
i work in a warehouse where is temperature monitored (fridge) . When there is a problem a text message arrives to my mobile phone ( low temp) . Sometimes the alarm is false and the message is not reliable.
I want to power on my computer from home and lunch the monitoring software at the warehouse and have a look at the temperatures.
We own a hp proliant m110 g7 and we use it a regular pc not as a server. With port forwarding from the browser i can power on the hp machine and lunch the monitoring software. My worry is that this is not a good practise , direct exposure to web.
If i change the default port and put a strong username and password is it enough ? . The hp machine keeps nothing important to loose.
also my router is not VPN ready to make a vpn .
please point me to the right direction
thank you in advance

Re: ilo exposure to world wide web danger
I would setup a VPN. iLO was not designed to be exposed directly to the Internet. It is best practice to keep it in a segregated management network.
