TCP Keepalive time in s

This option allows you to change how many seconds the unit will wait during a silent
connection before attempting to see if the currently connected network device is still
on the network. If the unit then gets no response, it will drop that connection.

ARP Cache timeout in s

Whenever the unit communicates with another device on the network, it will add an
entry into its ARP table. The ARP Cache timeout option allows you to define how
many seconds (1-600) the unit will wait before timing out this table.

Security Settings

Note: You can change these settings via Telnet or serial connections only, not on
the WEB-Manager. We recommend that you set security over the dedicated network
or over the serial setup. If you set parameters over the network (Telnet 9999),
someone else could capture these settings.

Disable SNMP

This setting allows you to disable the SNMP protocol on the unit preventing SNMP
management software from communicating with the SDS.

SNMP Community Name

This option allows you to change the SNMP Community Name on the unit. This
allows for ease of management, and possibly some security. If someone tries to
violate security but doesn't know what community to connect to, that person will be
unable to get the SNMP community information from the unit.
