Password

Figure 6-10
The Passwork screen, shown in Figure 6-10, allows you to change the password,
set SNMP Community names, enable UPnP Services, and restore the Router's
default settings.
Router Password Set a password for the Router. You can use up to 64 alphanu-
meric characters. The default password is admin. If you don't change the pass-
word, all users on your network will be able to access the Router using the
default password.
SNMP Community Each SNMP Community field allows a name to be
assigned to any SNMP community that has been set up in the network. Four
different communities can be defined, including the two default communities,
public and private (you can redefine the default communities). For each SNMP
Community name, you can configure each community's accessibility, making
it either Read-Only or Read-Write.
UPnP Services Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) allows Windows XP to auto-
matically configure the Router for various Internet applications, such as gam-
ing and videoconferencing. Click the radio button next to Enable to enable
UPnP Services, or Disable to disable UPnP Services.
