F. ADVANCED – ADMIN

This section of the advanced tab is used for changing the password and device
name for the Host and/or Client.




























ADMIN PASSWORD
To change the password, type in the desired password change and confirm. Record
all password changes as there are no ways to reset to default later if the password
is lost or forgotten.

ADMINISTRATION
The device name can be changed here. Each unit does not have to have a
matching device name in order to associate. This name will appear on the status
info and Locator tool. The web idle time out will return the web browser back to the
log in screen.

FAQ: How can I return the unit to defaults if I cannot access
the GUI interface?
If the password to the interface is changed and no record was kept,
unfortunately it must be returned to KBC for a hard reset. There is no
“back door” default to the system in order to protect against an
attacker with knowledge of such a reset function.

All password changes must be recorded and kept in an

accessible place for future reference.
