Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface Setting the Time and Time Zone The N1 Vision keeps time by c onnecting to a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) server. This allows the N1 Vision to synchronize the system clock to the global Internet. The synchronized clock in the N1 Vision is used to record the security log and control client filtering. Select the time zone that you reside in. You have the option to select a primary and a backup NTP server to keep your N1 Vision's clock synchronized. Select your desired NPT server from the drop-down box, or simply keep it as is. If you reside in an area that observes daylight saving, then place a check mark in the box next to "Enable Daylight Saving". The system clock may not update immediately. Allow at least 15 minutes for the N1 Vision to contact the time servers on the Internet and get a response. You cannot set the clock yourself. Enabling Remote Management Before you enable this advanced feature of your Belkin N1 Vision, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SET THE ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD. Remote management allows you to make changes to your N1 Vision's settings from anywhere on the Internet. There are two methods of remotely managing the N1 Vision. The first is to allow access to the N1 Vision from anywhere on the Internet by selecting "Any IP address can remotely manage the N1 Vision". By typing in your WAN IP address from any computer on the Internet, you will be presented with a login screen where you need to type in the password of your N1 Vision. The second method is to allow a specific IP address only to remotely manage the N1 Vision. This is more secure, but less convenient. To use this method, enter the IP address you know you will be accessing the N1 Vision from in the space provided and select "Only this IP address can remotely manage the N1 Vision". Before you enable this function, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that you set your administrator password. Leaving the password empty will potentially open your N1 Vision to intrusion. 80
