Management software installed: start, stop, installation
Ability to set restrictions on users who use the service
System of "black list" for users engaged in more than a certain number of login errors
Running in "silent and stealth mode": the door to go to the show via AAS only open in the face of calls correctly formatted with a "port keyword" specified.
