User Manual / MBR1200B
NOTE: You can restrict remote access to only specified IP addresses in SECURITY > Zone Firewall > Remote
Access Restriction.
Allow Remote SSH Access – This will enable SSH access to the router from the Internet. It is only available when
SSH access is enabled in the Local Management tab. Some carriers block the remote SSH access ports. If a ping
to the router's WAN port does not work, it is unlikely that remote SSH access will work.
SYSTEM CLOCK
Enabling NTP will tell the router to get its system time from a
remote server on the Internet. If you do not enable NTP then
the router time will be based on when the router firmware
was built, which is guaranteed to be wrong. Whenever the
Internet connection is re-established and once a week
thereafter the router will ask the server for the current time
so it can correct itself.
You then have the option of selecting an NTP server and
adjusting the NTP server port. Select the NTP server from the
dropdown list. Any of the given NTP servers will be sufficient
unless, for example, you need to synchronize your router's
time with other devices in a network.
• Time Zone – Select from a dropdown list. Setting your Time Zone is required to properly show time in your
router log.
• Daylight Savings Time – Select this checkbox if your location observes daylight saving time.
LOCAL MANAGEMENT
• Enable Internet Bounce Pages – Bounce pages show up
in your web browser when the router is not connected to
the Internet. They inform you that you are not connected
and try to explain why. If you disable bounce pages then
you will just get the usual browser timeout. In the normal
case when the router is connected to the Internet you
don't see them at all.
• Disable Signal Strength Button - This disables the Signal
Strength or combined Signal Strength/WPS button.
• Disable Attention LED - This disables the Attention LED
and will take effect the next reboot.
• Reboot Count – Track number of router reboots.
• Enable Login Banner – Add the CLI banner to the router's
login page.
• Local Domain – The local domain is used as the suffix for
DNS entries of local hosts. This is tied to the hostnames
of DHCP clients as DHCP_HOSTNAME.LOCAL_DOMAIN.
• System Identifier – This is a customizable identity that
will be used in router reporting and alerting. The default
value is the product name and the last three characters of
the MAC address of the router.
• Asset Identifier – This is a customizable string that will be used in router reporting and alerting.
• Require HTTPS Connection – Check this box if you want to encrypt all router administration communication.
