Using E5810 Web Access
Viewing and Modifying Configuration
Hostname
[
None
]
This value configures the internet domain name for the E5810.
Hostnames are useful when IP addresses are being assigned by a
DHCP Server, since the Hostname will not change despite DHCP Server
changes and device IP address changes.
If a Hostname is entered, the E5810 will try to register this name when it
boots. The E5810 can only register the Hostname if the network has
Dynamic DNS. If the network does not have Dynamic DNS, this value
is not used. Since you can always use the IP Address or the name
(possibly supplied by another name Server), the Hostname is not a
required configuration value.
You may enter up to 35 characters for the Hostname. The Hostname
must start with a letter and consists of upper and lower case letters and
digits and dashes. There is no default Hostname. If a Hostname is
displayed on the
Welcome
page, it is a valid Hostname, since one was
found on the network through DNS.
I/O Timeout
[120 sec]
This value sets the Server I/O timeout in seconds. It configures the E5810
to use an I/O timeout of the specified amount of seconds if the client
requests a timeout of infinity. If
0
is specified for this value and the client
requests an infinite timeout, the E5810 will use a timeout of infinity as
requested.
Setting the I/O timeout to
0
is NOT recommended
,
as this can result in
the E5810 waiting indefinitely for an I/O operation and effectively “hang”
the E5810.
This timeout value may be used to ensure that the E5810 does not wait
indefinitely for an I/O operation. It also allows the E5810 to detect certain
network events (such as when a client connection is dropped) that may
otherwise go undetected. If the E5810 detects such a condition, it will
release any resources, such as locks, associated with the client.
This value also allows the E5810 to detect certain network events, such
as when a client connection is dropped. If the E5810 detects such a
condition, it will release any resources, such as locks, associated with
the client. The factory default setting is 120 sec.
