DESCRIPTION

System Setup
System Name

System Name is a unique name to identify the NBG-417N in an
Ethernet network. It is recommended you enter your computer’s
“Computer name” in this field (see the chapter about wizard setup for
how to find your computer’s name).

This name can be up to 30 alphanumeric characters long. Spaces are
not allowed, but dashes “-” and underscores "_" are accepted.

Domain Name

Enter the domain name (if you know it) here. If you leave this field
blank, the ISP may assign a domain name via DHCP.

The domain name entered by you is given priority over the ISP
assigned domain name.

Administrator
Inactivity Timer

Type how many minutes a management session can be left idle before
the session times out. The default is 5 minutes. After it times out you
have to log in with your password again. Very long idle timeouts may
have security risks. A value of "0" means a management session never
times out, no matter how long it has been left idle (not
recommended).

as shown.

Old Password

Type the default password or the existing password you use to access
the system in this field.

New Password

Type your new system password (up to 30 characters). Note that as
you type a password, the screen displays an asterisk (*) for each
character you type.
