NetGenie's Internet Controls
Once you begin surfing the web, you would want to ensure online safety for your office users to give them
controlled internet access to websites and applications. Since, your office users may have different Internet
access requirements based on individual roles, you might want to setup user-specific Internet controls.
In order to reflect your office users' activity in NetGenie, you will have to create different users and assign
Internet restriction zones for each and everyone. The user here refers to the name of the individual for whom
you want to set Internet surfing access policies.
Step 1: Basic Configuration
Login to the NetGenie Web Admin Console using the default username and password i.e. ‘admin’. Once you
have logged in into the appliance,
1. You can select your preferred language.
2. In ideal case, NetGenie appliances are programmed to automatically set time zone according to your
geographical location within first 30 seconds, once the Internet is connected. We suggest you to verify
the time zone from System > Time and update it, if required.
3. Register your NetGenie appliance from System > Registration to avail support.
