Remote Management

4.6.3System

Time Settings

Select your local time zone from the drop down list. This information is used for log entries and client filtering.

If you want to automatically synchronize the ADSL Wireless Base Station with a public time server, check the box to "Enable Automatic Time Server Maintenance". Select the desired servers from the drop down menu.

Password Settings

By default, management access is only available to users on your local network. However, you can also manage the ADSL Wireless Base Station from a remote host by entering the IP address of a remote computer on this screen. Check the Enabled check box, and enter the IP address of the Host Address and click "SAVE SETTINGS".

Note

If you check "Enable" and specify an IP address of 0.0.0.0, any remote host can manage the ADSL Wireless Base Station.

For remote management via WAN IP address you need to connect using port 8080. Simply enter WAN IP address followed by :8080, for example, 212.120.68.20:8080.

4.6.4 SNMP

Use the SNMP configuration screen to display and modify parameters for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

SNMP community

Use this page to change the password for accessing the management interface of the ADSL Wireless Base Station.

Passwords can contain from 3~12 alphanumeric characters and are case sensitive.

Note

If you lost the password, or you cannot gain access to the user interface, press the blue reset button on the rear panel, holding it down for at least five seconds to restore the factory defaults. By default, there is no password to login to the user interface.

!Warning

When you reset the ADSL Wireless Base Station using the reset button, all configuration settings will be lost, also your ISP setting (Internet Service Provider).

Enter a maximum Idle Time Out (in minutes) to define a maximum period of time for which the login session is maintained during inactivity.

If the connection is inactive for longer than the maximum idle time, it will perform system logout, and you have to log in again to access the management interface. (Default : 10 minutes)

A computer attached to the network, called a Network Management Station (NMS), can be used to access this information. Access rights to the agent are controlled by community strings. To communicate with the ADSL Wireless Base Station, the NMS must first submit a valid community string for authentication.
