Setting the Time and Time Zone
The N1 Vision keeps time by c onnecting to a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP)
server. This allows the N1 Vision to synchronize the system clock to the global
Internet. The synchronized clock in the N1 Vision is used to record the security log
and control client filtering. Select the time zone that you reside in. You have the
option to select a primary and a backup NTP server to keep your N1 Vision’s clock
synchronized. Select your desired NPT server from the drop-down box, or simply
keep it as is.
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 N1 Vision to contact the time servers
on the Internet and get a response. You cannot set the clock yourself.
Using the Web-Based
Advanced User Interface
Enabling Remote Management
Before you enable this advanced feature of your Belkin N1 Vision,
MAKE SURE
YOU HAVE SET THE ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD
. Remote management
allows you to make changes to your N1 Vision’s settings from anywhere on the
Internet. There are two methods of remotely managing the N1 Vision. The first is to
allow access to the N1 Vision from anywhere on the Internet by selecting “Any IP
address can remotely manage the N1 Vision”. 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 N1 Vision. The second method is to allow
a specific IP address only to remotely manage the N1 Vision. This is more secure,
but less convenient. To use this method, enter the IP address you know you will
be accessing the N1 Vision from in the space provided and select “Only this IP
address can remotely manage the N1 Vision”. Before you enable this function, it is
STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you set your administrator password. Leaving
the password empty will potentially open your N1 Vision to intrusion.
