How to remotely manage router in front of RED device?

frappagino
Hello all.  New here.  I've been working with Astaro firewalls for a few months now at our 2 main sites.  We just opened a satellite office and we are in the middle of fine tuning the RED setup.  It is working for the most part.  What I am stuck on is trying to figure out how to remotely manage the router sitting in front of the RED device here in the satellite office. We will have no physical IT Support present here, so we have to be able to manage every aspect remotely.

Basic setup is WAN - Adtran Router - RED - Layer 2 Switch - LAN

Only thing I can think of is to use a second LAN interface on the Adtran router for a separate VLAN.  I will then hook up a computer with two NICs at the remote office.  One NIC goes to default LAN going through the RED device, the 2nd NIC connected to the second interface on the ADTRAN router and manage it through that second interface.  Am I making any sense?  Any suggestions or anyone have experience with what I'm trying to accomplish?

Thanks for your assistance!

    Walter, have you tried to add the internal IP of the router to 'Split networks' for the RED?  I don't know that that will work.

    Cheers - Bob

    the router does not allow to be configured from the external interface, so I cannot reach the web-interface via dyndns.

    @Bob

    a short test didn't help.

    my situation:

    MyPC -- MyUTM -- Client-HQ-UTM -- Client-Remote-Router -- RED 

    The REd was configured as Standard/unified as all traffic should go through the UTM. When I switch to Standard/Split, I only can set networks that can be accessed through the UTM, but I cannot set ALL without the router.

    Afaik negative definitions are still not available at Sophos UTM.
