28.1 Admin Security

There are two types of user accounts available for accessing the web admin: admin and user.

They represent two user levels: the admin level has full administrative access, while the

user level is read-only. The user level can access only the device's status information; users

cannot make any changes on the device.

A web login session will be logged out automatically when it has been idle longer than the

Web Session Timeout. Before the session expires, you may click the Logout button in the

web admin to exit the session.

0 hours 0 minutes signifies an unlimited session time. This setting should be used only in

special situations, as it will lower the system security level if users do not log out before

closing the browser. The default is 4 hours, 0 minutes.

For security reasons, after logging in to the web admin Interface for the first time, it is

recommended to change the administrator password. Configuring the administration interface

to be accessible only from the LAN can further improve system security. Administrative

settings configuration is located at System>Admin Security.
