Remote Admin Port

The port that you will use to address the management interface from the Internet. For

example, if you specify port 1080 here, then, to access the router from the Internet, you

would use a URL of the form:

http://my.domain.com:1080/

.

Use HTTPS

Setting this option requires all remote administration to use the Secure HTTP (HTTPS)

protocol. For example, if you specify port 1080 above, then, to access the router from the

Internet, you would use a URL of the form:

https://my.domain.com:1080/

.

Remote Admin Inbound Filter

Select a filter that controls access as needed for this admin port. If you do not see the

filter you need in the list of filters, go to the

Advanced

→

Inbound Filter

screen and create

a new filter.

TIME

The Time Configuration option allows you to configure, update, and maintain the correct time on

the router's internal system clock. From this section you can set the time zone that you are in and

set the Time Server. Daylight saving can also be configured to automatically adjust the time when

needed.

Time Configuration

Current Router Time

Displays the time currently maintained by the router. If this is not correct, use the

following options to configure the time correctly.

Time Zone

Select your local time zone from pull down menu.

Enable Daylight Saving

Check this option if your location observes daylight saving time.

Daylight Saving Offset

Select the time offset, if your location observes daylight saving time.

DST Start and DST End

Select the starting and ending times for the change to and from daylight saving time. For

example, suppose for DST Start you select Month="Oct", Week="3rd", Day="Sun" and

Time="2am". This is the same as saying: "Daylight saving starts on the third Sunday of

October at 2:00 AM."

Automatic Time Configuration

Enable NTP Server

Select this option if you want to synchronize the router's clock to a Network Time Server

over the Internet. If you are using schedules or logs, this is the best way to ensure that

the schedules and logs are kept accurate.

Note that, even when NTP Server is enabled, you must still choose a time zone and set

the daylight saving parameters.

NTP Server Used

Select a Network Time Server for synchronization. You can type in the address of a time

server or select one from the list. If you have trouble using one server, select another.

Set the Date and Time Manually

If you do not have the NTP Server option in effect, you can either manually set the time

for your router here, or you can click the

Copy Your Computer's Time Settings

button

to copy the time from the computer you are using. (Make sure that computer's time is set

correctly.)

Note:

If the router loses power for any reason, it cannot keep its clock running, and will not have

the correct time when it is started again. To maintain correct time for schedules and logs, either

you must enter the correct time after you restart the router, or you must enable the NTP Server

option.

SYSLOG

This section allows you to archive your log files to a Syslog Server.

Enable Logging to Syslog Server

Enable this option if you have a syslog server currently running on the LAN and wish to

send log messages to it.

Syslog Server IP Address

Enter the LAN IP address of the Syslog Server.

EMAIL SETTINGS

The Email feature can be used to send the system log files, router alert messages, and firmware

update notification to your email address.

Enable

Enable Email Notification

When this option is enabled, router activity logs or firmware upgrade notifications can be

emailed to a designated email address, and the following parameters are displayed.

Email Log When Full or on Schedule

On Log Full

Select this option if you want logs to be sent by email when the log is full.

On Schedule

Select this option if you want logs to be sent by email according to a schedule.

Schedule

If you selected the On Schedule option, select one of the defined schedule rules. If you

do not see the schedule you need in the list of schedules, go to the

Tools

→

Schedules

screen and create a new schedule.

Note:

Normally email is sent at the start time defined for a schedule, and the schedule

end time is not used. However, rebooting the router during the schedule period will cause

additional emails to be sent.

DYNAMIC DNS

The Dynamic DNS feature allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, Game Server, etc.) using a

domain name that you have purchased (www.whateveryournameis.com) with your dynamically

assigned IP address. Most broadband Internet Service Providers assign dynamic (changing) IP

addresses. When you use a Dynamic DNS service provider, your friends can enter your host

name to connect to your server, no matter what your IP address is.

Enable Dynamic DNS

Enable this option only if you have purchased your own domain name and registered with

a dynamic DNS service provider. The following paramters are displayed when the option

is enabled.

Server Address

Select a dynamic DNS service provider from the pull-down list.

Host Name

Enter your host name, fully qualified; for example:

myhost.mydomain.net

.

Username or Key

Enter the username or key provided by your service provider. If the Dynamic DNS

provider supplies only a key, enter that key in all three fields.

Password or Key

Enter the password or key provided by your service provider. If the Dynamic DNS

provider supplies only a key, enter that key in all three fields.

Verify Password or Key

Re-type the password or key provided by your service provider. If the Dynamic DNS

provider supplies only a key, enter that key in all three fields.
