5.2 Performing System Administration

Tasks

Clicking the Toolbox icon at the top of any Gateway user interface
screen brings up the Administrator Toolbox, from which you can

monitor or change several system administration-type settings.

For example, you can

Change the Administrator’s password.
Type the existing password, then type the new password twice
(once for verification purposes). If you change your password
and then forget it, your only recourse is to reset it to the

default by performing a “hard” system reset (see page 44).

Change the duration of the Administrator Timeout setting.
Adminstrator Timeout is the length of time that an
administrator connected to the Gateway can be idle before

being automatically logged out. The default is 600 seconds (10

timeout is 9,999 seconds (2 hours, 46 minutes).

Check the Enable box next to the Remote Administrator
Host
item if you want to perform administration tasks from
