Overview of the Remote UI
The Remote UI software enables you to access and manage a machine connected
to a network using a web browser.

use the Remote UI. This means that you do not need to have any special software,
other than a web browser installed on your computer. You can use the Remote UI
by specifying the address of the machine in your web browser. From the
Remote UI, you can manage and control the machine.
