Hint
In WinRoute, you can use a similar method to allow or block remote administration of Kerio
MailServer — for connection via the Administration Console, use the predefined service KMS
Admin, for the Web Administration use HTTPS.
Note: Be very careful while defining traffic rules, otherwise you could block remote administra-
tion from the host you are currently working on. However, in most cases, WinRoute recognizes
such situation and shows a warning message. Local connections (from the WinRoute Firewall
Engine’s host) works anyway. Such a traffic cannot be blocked by any rule.
16.3 Update Checking
WinRoute enables automatic check for new versions at the Kerio Technologies website. When-
ever a new version is detected, is download and installation is offered.
Open the Update Checker tab in the Configuration → Advanced Options section to view infor-
mation on a new version and to set parameters for automatic checks for new versions.

Last update check performed ... ago
Information on how much time ago the last update check was performed.
If the time is too long (several days) this may indicate that the automatic update checks
fail for some reason (i.e. access to the update server is blocked by a traffic rule). In
such cases we recommend you to perform a check by hand (by clicking on the Check now
button), view results in the Debug log (see chapter 22.6 ) and take appropriate actions.
