For Example: User A changes HTTP port number to 100, specifies their own IP address of 192.168.1.55, and sets the logout time to be 100 seconds. The router will only allow User A access from the IP address 192.168.1.55 to logon to the Web GUI by typing: http://192.168.1.254:100 in their web browser. After 100 seconds, the device will automatically log User A out.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)

UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices, along with control and data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages for users who run NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on other supported systems. User can perform various tasks more easily such as port forwarding by letting the application control the required settings, removing the need for the user to control advanced configuration of their device.

Both the user’s Operating System and the relevant application must support UPnP in addition to the router. Windows XP and Windows ME natively support UPnP (when the component is installed), and Windows 98 users may install the Internet Connection Sharing client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP. Windows 2000 does not support UPnP.

•Disable: Check to disable the router UPnP functionality.

•Enable: Check to enable the router UPnP functionality.

•UPnP Port: Its default setting is 2800. It is highly recommended for users to use this port value. If this value conflicts with other ports already used, you may change the port.

SNMP Access Control (Software on a PC within the LAN is required in order to utilize this function) – Simple Network Management Protocol.

SNMP V1 and V2:

•Read Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Read Community, and an IP address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the string name is matched, user who obtains this IP address will be able to view the data.

•Write Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Write Community, and an IP address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the string name is matched, user from this IP address will be able to view and modify the data.

•Trap Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Trap Community, and an IP address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the configuration file. Once the string name is matched, user from this IP address will be sent to SNMP Traps.
