6.1. 

Password Protection 

iBoot-G2+  uses  two  username/password  credential  sets,  one  for  normal 
power  control  (User)  and  one  that  also  provides  access  to  the  setup 
functions  (Admin).    This  configuration  can  be  changed  to  require 
Administrator credentials at all times or allow unsecured User level control.  
see Passwords / User Settings 

section 7.13

 
Default Credentials: 

Role 

 

Username (fixed) 

Password (settable) 

Administrator

Open  your browser and enter the IP address of iBoot-G2+ into the address bar.  If  you have changed the IP 
address  by  any  of  the  methods  described,  enter  that  address,  otherwise,  use  the  default  IP  address 
192.168.1.254 
 
Enter  the  username  and  password  when  prompted.    When  the  proper  username/password  is  received  the 
Control and Status Page is displayed. 
 
iBoot-G2+ uses an inactivity timer for security.  This timeout is user selectable from 0 to 99 minutes.   Setting 
to  zero  disables  the  timeout  feature.    When  there  is  no  activity  for  the  set  time  in  minutes,  the  user  is 
automatically logged out and the username and password will need to be entered again for access.  This is to 
prevent accidental lockout by leaving the user logged in.   
 

As  the  iBoot-G2+  allows  only  one  Web  user  logged  in  at  any  time,  use  caution  when  disabling  the 
timeout feature, as  it  is  possible to lock out other users by forgetting to  logout.   Closing  the browser 
will  not  log  the  user  out  and  will  lock  out  web  access.      If  you  do  become  locked  out,  access  the 
iBoot-G2+ via Telnet and reboot the unit, or press the reset button (see Section 11) 
 
When  accessing  and  using  the  iBoot-G2+  via  a  web  browser,  the  browser  session  may  remain 
authenticated  even  after  logging  out.  For  ultimate  security,  please  close  the  browser  to  clear  any 
authentication artifacts after logging out of the unit. 

6.2. 

Mobile Browser Support 

The web page displayed to the right is for screen sizes 700 pixels wide and 
less.  The iBoot-G2+ automatically detects the screen size and adjusts the 
pages to look appropriate for the mobile browser.  Setup options are 
available, however some settings will require the phone to be in portrait 
mode to be programmed.
