Configuration and Management
After the initial startup (POST) test, the router will prompt you for login and password. This is the opening page of
the router’s configuration program, called the Console program. The Console program is stored in the Flash
memory chips in the router and the settings are written in EEPROM chips in the router. It is the most basic level
for configuring and managing the router and the network to which it is connected.
If you’re starting the router for the first time, the default login and password is “Admin” – the login and password
are case-sensitive, alphanumeric characters.
Note that once you are in the
Main Menu
, if there is no activity for more than 5 minutes, the router will
automatically log you out. Your first endeavor should be to increase the ‘timeout’ time by adjusting the
appropriate value in the
System Information
submenu.
The router can also be configured remotely through a LAN or WAN connection by using the included Router
Configuration Utility or Telnet. However, if you wish to do this, the console program must first be used to initially
configure the relevant port on the router. Please see
Step 3 - Initial Configuration of the Router
on page 8 of this
manual for more detailed information.
