System Identification

Machine Name: This is the name that is used to

uniquely identify this machine. You may wish to create

a DNS entry that matches this name. The name is

provided as the Client Name for the DHCP server. It is

also shown at the top of each page in the web browser

interface and is the “desktop name” for VNC clients.
Other identification details: These values are for

information purposes. They are visible from the VNC

client and via SNMP (if enabled).
Location: This string is sent as the system.sysLocation

value over SNMP. It should describe the location of this

system.
Contact Name: This string is sent as the system.sys

Contact value over SNMP. It should describe who to contact regarding this machine.

Typically it includes an email address.
Network Address: This value is not used in our configuration, but is meant to store a

user-defined value that identifies the controlled machine on the network. The official

DNS name of the controlled machine is an obvious value to put here, but you may use

it for any purpose.
Description: A user-defined description for the controlled machine.

Security

This menu allows you to configure a number of settings,

including the admin password. Be careful when making

any changes remotely, as altering these features could

make the unit inaccessible through Web configuration

(i.e. due to firewall filtering). Note that any password

changes you make will have to be entered twice to

protect against user error.
