9.3 Access Control
Introduction
Access Control allows you to create access schedules for Internet access.
By default, all devices have constant access to the Internet. Access Control allows you to create exceptions on this rule by
adding an access schedule for specific devices. You can define two schedules for each device:
• One schedule for weekdays (Monday until Friday)
For example. On weekdays, your child’s computer is allowed to access the Internet from 6:00 until 7:59 and from 19:00
until 21:59.
• One schedule for the weekend (Saturday and Sunday)
For example. In the weekend, your child’s computer is allowed to access the Internet from 9:00 until 22:59.
Warning
Make sure that the persons using these devices are aware of the time schedule. This to avoid the loss of data or unexpected
service interruption.
Requirements
Before you can start:
• Your TG789vac v2 must be connected to the Internet.
• Your TG789vac v2 must use a time server for its time configuration.
For more information, see “8.4 Network time server” on page 78.
Creating an access schedule
Proceed as follows:
1 On the Home Network, click Access Control.
2 The Access Control page appears.
3 If you did not yet create an access rule for the device, select the device under Device Access Scheduler and click Add.
The selected device is now listed under Current Scheduled Devices.
4 Under Current Scheduled Devices, click Edit next to your device.
Depending on the software version used by your service provider, this feature may not be available on your
TG789vac v2.
