 ===== SSH Daemon =====
-Secure SHell is a tunneling protocol that allows you to make secure local and remote connections to the FreshTomato router. With the help of the Dropbear service, it also allows you to make SSH connections //though //the router, to LAN clients. Setings here enable or disable the SSH and the Dropbear daemon, and configure their operation.

 ===== Admin Restrictions =====
-**Allowed Remote IP Address:**  the IP addresses/DNS names of hosts you want to allow to connect to the router's web interface. Addresses can be individual, comma-separated or a range separated by a dash (1.1.1.1-2.2.2.2). This applies to local and remote administration via HTTP(S), SSH and Telnet.
