Remote Log
You can identify an IP address to which system log messages are sent by selecting
Product Information from the Local > Options menu. Enter the IP address in the Add box
and click on Apply.
Changing the Bridge/Router’s Password
You can add users and change passwords using the User Management screen. For
example, to change the administrator password:
1. Select User Management from the Local > Options menu.
2. Type Admin in the Login Name field, if it is not already present.
3. Type the new password in the Password and Confirmed Password fields.
4. Optionally, change the Idle Timeout value. A user is logged off automatically after
this amount of time if no keyboard activity is detected. The default is 6000 seconds
(100 minutes).
5. Click on Apply.
6. Select Local > Commands in the menu frame. Click on Save All Changes.
Ping
Once you have your Bridge/Router configured, it is a good idea to make sure you can
ping the network. Select Ping from the Local > Options menu. Type the target address
that you want to ping. If you have your PC connected to the Bridge/Router via the default
DHCP configuration, you should be able to ping the network address 192.168.1.1. If
your ISP has provided their server address, try to ping that address. If the pings for both
the WAN and the LAN side complete successfully, and you have the proper protocols
configured, the Bridge/Router is ready for use.
