Hi,

I think the easiest way would be to connect to it via ssh and as you have a dynamic IP you would have to use dynDNS to be able to connect to it by name instead of IP.

1) for SSH

- crypto key generate rsa general-keys label mySSHKeys modulus 1024

-ip ssh version 2

- line vty 0 4

   login authentication VTY

   transport input ssh

2)for the authentication

- enable secret XXXXX

-username user   secret xxxxx

- aaa new-model

-aaa authentication login VTY local-case none

-aaa authentication enable default local-case enable

you'll be prompted for case-sensitive user/pass when login via ssh( which is only protocol permitted) and then you'll have to enter same user/pass for going into privileged mode

3) for DynDNS  :
