On the navigation tree, click IN-tact Setup > System Setup > Web Interface. The Web
Interface Settings screen appears:
You have the option of restricting access to the IN-tact 1101 web server to a specific IP address
(or range of addresses). This is useful in preventing unauthorized access attempts on the device
from IP addresses outside your normal range of operation.
You can also disable or change the value of the timeout feature associated with the web
interface. This is a security feature. By default, the web session automatically expires after five
minutes of no activity. The user is logged out. Any changes made to that point are discarded,
unless Apply and Restart has been used to commit the changes to persistent memory. However,
there may be situations in which you want to disable the timeout completely, or set it to a different
value. For example, a direct "always on" connection to the web server, or while working with or
configuring the device.
The IN-tact 1101 automatically logs you out of the web server interface when you close the
browser window. However, if the web session timeout feature is disabled, the session remains
open. For example, if you browse to other sites while configuring the IN-tact 1101, it may appear
that another session is already in progress when you return to the IN-tact's address.
It is important to understand that only one user may be logged in to the IN-tact 1101 web server
interface at any given time. For example, assume that User 1 has already logged in and has a
session in progress. When User 2 attempts to log in, the IN-tact Login screen displays with a red
message stating "Another user is logged in. If you continue, their session will expire
immediately." If User 2 continues to enter the password and log in at this point, User 1 is logged
off and that session is closed. A new session is started for User 2. User 1 will see a message
