The DEVICE SET-UP MENU allows the definition of the Device name, and a password to control local/remote access
to the router management console. You can also set the real-time clock and date. Note that the clock is a 24-hour real-
time clock.
1 - Password
The Password option allows you to change the router's login password. (The characters will not be echoed on the
screen.) (If you have no need for a password, enter <NONE> in CAPS, and the entry of a password will be bypassed.)
The password is case sensitive and must be entered precisely. An example is given below:
Enter:
new password (1 to 8 characters)
>
Enter:
verification of new password (1 to 8 characters)
>
New password installed
2 - Device Name
The Device Name option allows you to name (or re-name) this device for identification purposes. The router name will
be displayed both in the Value column of this option and in the upper left-hand corner of all menu screens. If the
router has not been named, the device name in the upper left-hand corner of the screen and the information in the
Value column will show a prefix of DEV followed by the last six characters of the LAN port MAC address (e.g.
DEV006045).
