Maintenance

This chapter displays information on the maintenance screens.

16.1 Maintenance Overview

The maintenance screens can help you view system information, upload new firmware,
manage configuration and restart your ZyWALL.

16.1.1 General Setup and System Name

General Setup contains administrative and system-related information. System Name is for
identification purposes. However, because some ISPs check this name you should enter your
computer's "Computer Name".

• In Windows 95/98 click Start, Settings, Control Panel, Network. Click the

Identification tab, note the entry for the Computer Name field and enter it as the System
Name
.

• In Windows 2000, click Start, Settings, Control Panel and then double-click System.

Click the Network Identification tab and then the Properties button. Note the entry for
the Computer name field and enter it as the System Name.

• In Windows XP, click Start, My Computer, View system information and then click

the Computer Name tab. Note the entry in the Full computer name field and enter it as
the ZyWALL System Name.

16.1.2 Domain Name

The Domain Name entry is what is propagated to the DHCP client on the LAN. If you leave
this blank, the domain name obtained by DHCP from the ISP is used. While you must enter
the host name (System Name), the domain name can be assigned from the ZyWALL via
DHCP.
