Due to security concerns we need to disable HTTP access and only keep SSH access on the billion device.

When I log out of my current SSH CLI session and try to connect using another SSH session it seems the SSH remote access gets closed as well.
ICMP to the billion is fine but seems all remote capability is disabled to the device when you just disable the HTTP service.
NMAP shows it being closed as well.

Anyone have any insight on this?

thanks.

You can do it by editing your Backup configuration file as below line 33 :

lan = Only LAN can access

enable = LAN and WAN both can access

Thanks but this doesn't work either, it disables all remote services. apparently billion says remote access is tied to http and if you disable it you disable all remote access.
