DESCRIPTION

System Setup

 

 

 

System Name

Enter your computer's "Computer Name". This is for identification purposes, but

 

some ISPs also check this field. This name can be up to 30 alphanumeric

 

characters long. Spaces are not allowed, but dashes “-” and underscores "_" are

 

accepted.

 

 

Domain Name

Enter the domain name entry that is propagated to DHCP clients on the LAN. If

 

you leave this blank, the domain name obtained from the ISP is used. Use up to

 

38 alphanumeric characters. Spaces are not allowed, but dashes “-” and periods

 

"." are accepted.

 

 

Administrator

Enter the number of minutes a management session can be left idle before the

Inactivity Timer

session times out. After it times out, you have to log in again. A value of "0" means

 

a management session never times out, no matter how long it has been left idle.

 

This is not recommended. Long idle timeouts may have security risks. The default

 

is five minutes.
