Time Settings

Select your local time zone from the drop down list. This information is
used for log entries and client filtering.

If you want to automatically synchronize the ADSL Wireless Base
Station with a public time server, chech the box to Enable Automatic
Time Server Maintenance. Select the desired servers from the drop
down menu.

Password Settings

Use this page to change the password for accessing the management
interface of the ADSL Wireless Base Station.

Passwords can contain from 3~12 alphanumeric characters and are case
sensitive.

Note

If you lost the password, or you cannot gain access to the user interface,
press the blue reset button on the rear panel, holding it down for at
least five seconds to restore the factory defaults. By default, there is no
password to login to the user interface.

Warning

When you reset the ADSL Wireless Base Station using the reset button,
all configuration settings will be lost, also your ISP setting (Internet
Service Provider).

Enter a maximum Idle Time Out (in minutes) to define a maximum
period of time for which the login session is maintained during inactivity.

If the connection is inactive for longer than the maximum idle time, it
will perform system logout, and you have to log in again to access the
management interface. (Default : 10 minutes)

Remote Management

By default, management access is only available to users on your local
network. However, you can also manage the ADSL Wireless Base
Station from a remote host by entering the IP address of a remote
computer on this screen. Check the Enabled check box, and enter the
IP address of the Host Address and click "SAVE SETTINGS".

Note

If you check "Enable" and specify an IP address of 0.0.0.0, any remote
host can manage the ADSL Wireless Base Station.

For remote management via WAN IP address you need to connect
using port 8080. Simply enter WAN IP address followed by :8080, for
example, 212.120.68.20:8080.

4.6.4 SNMP
Use the SNMP configuration screen to display and modify parameters
for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

SNMP community

A computer attached to the network, called a Network Management
Station (NMS), can be used to access this information. Access rights to
the agent are controlled by community strings. To communicate with
the ADSL Wireless Base Station, the NMS must first submit a valid
community string for authentication.

Note

Up to five community names may be entered.
