PCI Compliance for Time Capsule

Is it possible to configure a Time Capsule to allow external scans (from a range of white-listed IPs) to confirm the security of my local network?

As of January this year PCI Compliance rules changed requiring access to my local network. I've verified with my ISP there's no firewall operating.

I freely admit I'm not an IT guy, but I've managed to keep our small business connected and running. Any advice or suggestions on configuration via AirPort Utility or otherwise are much appreciated.

Many thanks,

macOS Sierra (10.12.6)

Time Capsule option to add to existing network doesn't work I recently bought a TP-Link Deco X20 mesh system and want to change my Time Capsule (ac model) to just be a networked Time Machine (it was my router). I've reset the router and have been trying to use the option "add to existing network," but when setting up via iOS, I receive the message "an unexpected error has occurred" after selecting the option and when setting up in macOS, Airport Utility just reverts back to the setting up a network screen. Either way, no setup is happening. The Time Capsule is plugged into the back of the main Deco unit. Has anyone had any luck switching a Time Capsule from a router to just a device on the network? Thanks.

Time Capsule was previously part of this network error Bridge Mode Hello, I've been using an AirPort Time Capsule for about a month now. I setup the device in bridge mode and use it for network backups and as a ethernet switch for my media console. It works perfectly fine, I can still make backups to it and the ethernet ports are fully functional. For some reason though, I can no longer manage the Time Capsule. If I fire up AirPort utility I can see that the Time Capsule is connected, but I can't view any of its settings and I eventually get an error that says: "Device not found. Airport Time Capsule was previously part of your network. Check that it is still in range of your network and is plugged into a power outlet. Forgetting this device removes it from your network." Here is a screen cap of what I see in AirPort Utility: https://imgur.com/a/frcXUcR My router is a Linksys WRT1200AC, the Time Capsule is seen correctly by my router and both my Macs and my gaming desktop can see/access the Time Capsule on the network so the problem does not appear to be hardware related.
