Time Server
The SnapGear VPN Router can synchronize its system time with a remote time server using the
Network Time Protocol (NTP). Configuring the NTP Time Server ensures that the SnapGear VPN
Router's clock (in UTC) will be accurate soon after the Internet connection is established. If NTP is
not used, the system clock will be set randomly when the SnapGear VPN Router starts up.
To set the system time using NTP, select the Set Time check box on the NTP Server Configuration
page and enter the IP address of the time server in the Remote NTP Server field.
Password
The SnapGear VPN Router’s password is used to restrict access to the SnapGear VPN Router’s
Configuration web pages and the SnapGear VPN Router itself. A potential security issue may be
introduced by having a network-connected SnapGear VPN Router accessible, using the factory
default password. To prevent this, the SnapGear VPN Router’s password must be changed when
Setup Wizard is run or the Configuration web pages are accessed for the first time. The SnapGear
VPN Router’s password can be changed at any time through the Configuration web pages by
clicking
Password in the System menu.
The SnapGear VPN Router’s password is the ‘key’ to the security of your network; it is essential to
keep it secret. SnapGear recommends choosing a password that is easy for you to remember but
hard for unauthorized people to guess.
Note that:
•
The username field will be ignored - there is no username.
•
The SnapGear VPN Router factory default password is: default.

provided on the SnapGear VPN Router’s Configuration web pages. To access this information, from
the
System menu, click Diagnostics . Advanced network diagnostics can be viewed by selecting the
