Express Setup Configuration Page  
When the devices web interface is accessed for the first time an Express Setup page will be shown. This page is designed to allow a quick device  
set-up by presenting the most popular device configuration options in a single location. For more advanced configurations the full set of options  
are available in the feature links (left-hand column).  
The Express Setup web page will display the necessary fields based upon the selections made during configuration. The Express Setup page  
looks like (Figure 1):
