Setting Internet access time restrictions
To enhance security, efficiency, and cost control, you can configure the AIR-104/204 to
disallow Internet access except on certain days, at certain times.
In order for this feature to be effective, the AIR-104/204s internal clock must already
have been set to the correct date and time. See
Setting the Time
(above) for full details.
When the AIR-104/204 has undergone a system reset or a power-down, at first the date
and time will be unset. If you have configured the AIR-104/204 to restrict Internet
access to certain days and times, it will not be able to comply with these restrictions until
you set the correct date and time. Therefore, the AIR-104/204 can be configured to
respond to this circumstance either by freely allowing Internet access, or by disallowing
all Internet access until the clock is set. Once you have set the correct date and time
from a management PC, the AIR-104/204 will once again begin complying with the
underlying Internet access time restrictions stored in memory.
To set Internet access time restrictions
Step 1 Log onto the ICC. Find the Configuration heading on the
ICC Menu
, and click
on Internet Access Time

Internet Access Time Configuration
window
appears in the main window of the ICC browser screen. Current settings

days of the week during which Internet access is allowed. You may specify a
Day Range
by clicking on the appropriate drop-down lists, or click on

allow Internet access every day.
Step 3 Specify which times Internet access should be allowed. Specify a

is based upon a 24 hour clock). Select
All
to allow Internet access from
midnight to midnight on the days you selected in
Step 2.
Select a default status for Internet access privilege when the AIR-104/204 cannot comply
with your desired Internet access time restrictions (i.e. after the router has been reset or
powered down). If you select "Yes" (the default), then Internet access will be allowed until
