The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 8   System General Setup

System Name

Choose a descriptive name for identification purposes. It is recommended you 

enter your computer’s “Computer name” in this field (see the Wizard Setup 

chapter for how to find your computer’s name). This name can be up to 30 

alphanumeric characters long. Spaces are not allowed, but dashes “-” and 

underscores "_" are accepted.

Domain Name

Enter the domain name (if you know it) here. If you leave this field blank, the ISP 

may assign a domain name via DHCP. 
The domain name entered by you is given priority over the ISP assigned domain 

name.

Administrator 

Inactivity Timer

Type how many minutes a management session (either via the web configurator 

or SMT) can be left idle before the session times out. The default is 5 minutes. 

After it times out you have to log in with your password again. Very long idle 

timeouts may have security risks. A value of "0" means a management session 

never times out, no matter how long it has been left idle (not recommended).

System DNS Servers (if applicable)
DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice 

versa. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a 

computer before you can access it. The Prestige uses a system DNS server (in the order you specify 

here) to resolve domain names for VPN, DDNS and the time server.

First DNS Server
Second DNS Server
Third DNS Server 

Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and the 

Prestige's WAN IP address). The field below displays the (read-only) DNS server 

IP address that the ISP assigns. 
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS 

server's IP address in the field below. If you chose User-Defined, but leave the IP 

address set to 0.0.0.0, User-Defined changes to None after you click Apply. If 

you set a second choice to User-Defined, and enter the same IP address, the 

second User-Defined changes to None after you click Apply. 
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure 

a system DNS server, you must use IP addresses when configuring VPN, DDNS 

and the time server.
