This section contains some of the router's basic settings for you to configure plus a few
maintenance functions.
7.1.
System Settings
Use this section to configure the basic aspects of your device (i.e hostname and/or
timezone).
Disable anti-lockout rule: The anti-lock rule prevents you from creating a firewall rule that
will lock you out of the router. The rule is Enabled when the box is Unchecked.
Best
Practice is to complete the router configuration, test it thoroughly to make sure everything
works as intended, then disable the anti-lock role.
For example, if you want to be able to login to the router from your office, once the router
has been installed on a vessel; if you have WAN blocked and the Anti-Lock Rule is
enabled, you will not be able to login. First you want to create a firewall rule to allow the
office IP into the router, then "Disable anti-lock rule" by checking the checkbox and now
you can Block WAN in the Firewall Rules, if desired.
CAUTION: If you lock yourself out of the router, you must perform a factory reset. This
will eliminate your custom configuration requiring you to start a new configuration.
