Parameter | Description |
[Default] |
|
|
|
Hostname | This value configures the internet domain name for the E5810. |
[None] | Hostnames are useful when IP addresses are being assigned by a DHCP |
| Server, since the Hostname will not change despite DHCP Server |
| changes and device IP address changes. |
| If a Hostname is entered, the E5810 will try to register this name when it |
| boots. The E5810 can only register the Hostname if the network has |
| Dynamic DNS. If the network does not have Dynamic DNS, this value is |
| not used. Since you can always use the IP Address or the name (possibly |
| supplied by another name Server), the Hostname is not a required |
| configuration value. |
| You may enter up to 35 characters for the Hostname. The Hostname |
| must start with a letter and consists of upper and lower case letters and |
| digits and dashes. There is no default Hostname. If a Hostname is |
| displayed on the Welcome page, it is a valid Hostname, since one was |
| found on the network through DNS. |
|
|
I/O Timeout | This value sets the Server I/O timeout in seconds. It configures the E5810 |
[120 sec] | to use an I/O timeout of the specified amount of seconds if the client |
| requests a timeout of infinity. If 0 is specified for this value and the client |
| requests an infinite timeout, the E5810 will use a timeout of infinity as |
| requested. |
| Setting the I/O timeout to 0 is NOT recommended, as this can result in the |
| E5810 waiting indefinitely for an I/O operation and effectively “hang” the |
| E5810. |
| This timeout value may be used to ensure that the E5810 does not wait |
| indefinitely for an I/O operation. It also allows the E5810 to detect certain |
| network events (such as when a client connection is dropped) that may |
| otherwise go undetected. If the E5810 detects such a condition, it will |
| release any resources, such as locks, associated with the client. |
| This value also allows the E5810 to detect certain network events, such |
| as when a client connection is dropped. If the E5810 detects such a |
| condition, it will release any resources, such as locks, associated with the |
| client. The factory default setting is 120 sec. |
