Inactivity Timer
Type how many minutes a management session (via web configurator) 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).
System DNS Servers
First DNS Server
Second DNS Server
Third DNS Server The field to the right displays the (read-only) DNS server IP address that the
DHCP assigns.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the
DNS server's IP address in the field to the right.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not
configure a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a machine in order
to access it.
The default setting is None.
