Hello,
i have created a SSL_VPN zone  with the ge3 interface as a member. The ge3 interface has a public ip address "MYPUBLICIP".
Then i configured an SSL VPN and i am able to reach and use it from clients with Secure extender.
As I changed the port of "configuration->System->WWW->Service control->HTTPS" from 443 to 4443 i use the
"MYPUBLICIP:4443" in secure extender and in order to reach the SSL_VPN and I create a rule to allow traffic from WAN to SSL_VPN zone.
The problem is that in this way, i m even able to access remote management if in a browser I type 
https://MYPUBLICIP:4443.
I wonder if there is a way to have the SSL_VPN working but to completely disable the remote menagement from public IPs.
Thanks in advance.
Filippo

Just an update:
i have edited the "Admin Service Control" as showed in the pic:

In this way i should be able to deny access from OFWAN2 which is the interface with my MYPUBLICIP.
But even in this way, typing https://MYPUBLICIP:4443. in a web browser from internet I am able to access remote management.

    Go to Configuration>WWW>Session control>create the profile on Admin Service Control
    Zone select the Zone which you created, and choose deny
    For example, create profile OPT deny.
    Therefore, client cannot remote management device by OPT's Wan IP, but can establish SSL VPN with OPT's IP.
