Using the Configuration Menu (continued)

Tools> Admin

At this page, the DX-E401 administrator can change the system password. There are

two accounts that can access the Cable/DSL Router’s Web-Management interface.

They are admin and user. Admin has read/write access while user has read-only access.

User can only view the settings but cannot make any changes.

Remote Management

Remote management allows the DX-E401 to be configured

from the Internet by a web browser. A username and password is still required to access

the Web-Management interface. In general, only a member of your network can browse

the built-in web pages to perform Administrator tasks. This feature enables you to per-

form Administrator tasks from the remote (Internet) host.

IP Address

The Internet IP address of the computer that has access to the Cable/DSL

Router. If you input an asterisk (*) into this field, then any computer will be able to access

the Router. Putting an asterisk (*) into this field would present a security risk and is not

recommended.

Port

The port number used to access the Cable/DSL Router.

Example

http://x.x.x.x:8080 where x.x.x.x is the WAN IP address of the Cable/DSL

Router and 8080 is the port used for the Web-Mangement interface.
