5.7.8Setting the Screen Lockout Time

The screen lockout time can be set from 1 to 30 minutes with a default of

15 minutes. To set a new lockout time, perform the following steps:

1.Use the arrow keys to highlight the Screen Lockout Time field.

2.Enter a number from 1 to 30.

3.Press ENTER to set the lockout time in the input field.

4.Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command at the bottom of the screen and press ENTER.

If the time entered is within the 1 to 30 minutes range, the Event Message Line at the top of the screen displays “SAVED OK”. If the entry is not valid, Local Management does not alter the current setting, but it does refresh the Screen Lockout Time field with the previous value.

5.7.9Setting the Operational Mode

NOTE

If the device is to be configured to operate as a SecureFast switch, the device must be assigned an IP address that has been saved (i.e., the device has rebooted and the new IP address is active).

To set the Operational Mode, proceed as follows:

1.Use arrow keys to highlight the Operational Mode field.

2.Press the SPACE bar to step to the appropriate operation mode

(802.1D SWITCHING, 802.1Q SWITCHING or SECURE FAST VLAN).

3.Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command at the bottom of the screen, then press ENTER. The warning screen shown back in Figure 5-10displays.

4.Use the arrow keys to highlight the YES command and press ENTER. The changes are saved and the device reboots.
