Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface
Setting the Time and Time Zone
The Message Manager keeps time by connecting to a Simple Network Time
Protocol (SNTP) server. This allows the Message Manager to synchronize
the system clock to the global Internet. The synchronized clock in the
Message Manager is used to record the security log and control client
filtering. Select the time zone that you reside in. If you reside in an area that
observes Daylight Saving, then place a check mark in the box next to "Enable
Daylight Saving". The system clock may not update immediately. Allow at
least 15 minutes for the Message Manager to contact the time servers on
the Internet and get a response. You cannot set the clock yourself.
Enabling Remote Management
Before you enable this advanced feature of your Belkin Message Manager,
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SET THE ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD. Remote
management allows you to make changes to your Message Manager's
settings from anywhere on the Internet. There are two methods of remotely
managing the Message Manager. The first is to allow access to the
Message Manager from anywhere on the Internet by selecting "Any IP
address can remotely manage the Message Manager". By typing in your
WAN IP address from any computer on the Internet, you will be presented
with a login screen where you need to type in the password of your Message
Manager. The second method is to allow a specific IP address only to
remotely manage the Message Manager. This is more secure, but less
convenient. To use this method, enter the IP address you know you will be
accessing the Message Manager from in the space provided and select
"Only this IP address can remotely manage the Message Manager". Before
you enable this function, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you set
your administrator password. Leaving the password empty will potentially
open your Message Manager to intrusion.
