LABEL | DESCRIPTION |
|
|
System Name | System Name is a unique name to identify the ZyXEL Device in an Ethernet |
| network. It is recommended you enter your computer’s “Computer name” in this |
| field (see the chapter about wizard setup for how to find your computer’s name). |
| This name can be up to 30 alphanumeric characters long. Spaces are not |
| allowed, but dashes |
Domain Name | Enter the domain name (if you know it) here. If you leave this field blank, the ISP |
| may assign a domain name via DHCP. |
| The domain name entered by you is given priority over the ISP assigned domain |
| name. |
Administrator | Type how many minutes a management session can be left idle before the |
Inactivity Timer | session times out. The default is 5 minutes. After it times out you have to log in |
| with your password again. Very long idle timeouts may have security risks. A |
| value of "0" means a management session never times out, no matter how long it |
| has been left idle (not recommended). |
Password Setup | Change your ZyXEL Device’s password (recommended) using the fields as |
| shown. |
Old Password | Type the default password or the existing password you use to access the |
| system in this field. |
New Password | Type your new system password (up to 30 characters). Note that as you type a |
| password, the screen displays an asterisk (*) for each character you type. |
Retype to Confirm | Type the new password again in this field. |
|
|
Apply | Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyXEL Device. |

|
Reset | Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh. |
