This chapter explains how to configure the ZyXEL Device's system name, domain name,
password, and time and date settings.

17.1 General Setup

17.1.1 General Setup and System Name

General Setup contains administrative and system-related information. System Name is for
identification purposes. However, because some ISPs check this name you should enter your
computer's "Computer Name".
• In Windows 95/98 click Start, Settings, Control Panel, Network. Click the
Identification tab, note the entry for the Computer Name field and enter it as the System
Name.
• In Windows 2000, click Start, Settings, Control Panel and then double-click System.
Click the Network Identification tab and then the Properties button. Note the entry for
the Computer name field and enter it as the System Name.
• In Windows XP, click start, My Computer, View system information and then click the
Computer Name tab. Note the entry in the Full computer name field and enter it as the
ZyXEL Device System Name.
17.1.2 General Setup
The Domain Name entry is what is propagated to the DHCP clients on the LAN. If you leave
this blank, the domain name obtained by DHCP from the ISP is used. While you must enter
the host name (System Name), the domain name can be assigned from the ZyXEL Device via
DHCP.
Use this screen to set up the ZyXEL Device's system name, domain name, inactivity timer,
and passwords. Click Maintenance > System to open the General screen.
