Tools for Traffic Management
The ProSafe Quad WAN Gigabit Firewall includes several tools that can be used to monitor the
traffic conditions of the firewall and control who has access to the Internet and the types of traffic
they are allowed to have. See
“Monitoring the Router” on page 5-17
for a discussion of the tools.
Administration
You can change the administrator and guest passwords and settings, configure an SNMP manager,
backup settings and upgrade firmware, and enable remote management. Administrator access is
read/write and guest access is read-only.
Changing Passwords and Settings

recommends that you change this password to a more secure password. You can also configure a
separate password for guests.

Set Password
screen will
display.
2.

Settings
radio box.
3.
Change the password by first entering the old password, and then entering the new password
twice.

field to the number of minutes you require. The default is 5

Note:
If you make the administrator login time-out value too large, you will have to
wait a long time before you are able to log back into the router if your previous
login was disrupted (i.e., you did not click
Logout
on the Main Menu bar to
log out).
