Viewing and Configuring Appliance Parameters

The Settings tab allows you to display an expandable list of categories covering

a wide range of parameters for your appliance. When a category is selected

from the list, the parameters associated with the category will first be read

from the unit, the local database or both. You will then be able to modify those

parameters and send the changes securely back to the appliance.

Changing global network and session parameters

The Global category allows you to view the product type, part and serial number

and language setting for the appliance. If you select the Network sub-category,

you will be able to change the network settings including the IP address, subnet

mask, gateway, LAN speed and BootP setting. If you select the Sessions sub-

category, you can enable the session time-out to allow the appliance to close an

inactive video session after a specified number of minutes.

Setting up user accounts

When you select the Users category for the first time, the AMP will retrieve and

display a list of usernames and current access levels from the appliance. You

can add, modify or delete users in this listing. You can assign three access

levels: User, Administrator and Appliance Administrator. The User Access

level allows you to assign individual server access rights to a user.
