Console Tiered Access – Two Password Levels
Netopia Firmware Version 5.4 offers tiered access control for greater security and protection against accidental
or malicious misconfiguration. Service providers and network administrators can now limit the access of other
users to the various configuration screens to prevent misconfigurations.
The access privileges of various users that may be assigned are governed by a Superuser administrative
account. The Superuser can assign different privileges to Limited users who will be accessing the router
functions in some way.
Configuration access names and passwords are specified in the Security Options screen. From the Main Menu,
select System Configuration, then Security.

UPnP Support
UPnP Enabled: Universal Plug and Play (UPnP™) is a set of protocols that allows a PC to automatically discover
other UPnP devices (anything from an internet gateway device to a light switch), retrieve an XML description of
the device and its services, control the device, and subscribe to real-time event notification.
By default, UPnP is enabled on the Netopia Gateway.
