Is the Satellite admin interface gone?

To my recollection it was possible to connect to http://<satellite_ip> and access an admin interface similar to the router, but specific per satellite. I am on 2.5.1.8 and it doesn’t seem to respond anymore. Am I doing something wrong or is it gone?
  • Yes, it is still possible to connect to each satellite's web home page by IP address, as in http://<ip of satellite>

    It has very few menu items, as all of the relevant controls take place on the router and are passed through to the satellite.

    In addition, there is a "debug" page on each satellite, http://<ip of satellite>/debug.htm that can be used to turn on telnet access.
